Question:
A square will tile the plane. What is the 3-dimensional analogue of a square? Can it be used to "tile space"?
The 3-dimensional analogue of a square is a cube:
A cube can tessellate because its shape allows for all space to be filled without gaps or overlaps.
IN SUMMARY
-The three-dimensional analogue of a square is a cube, which has height, width, and depth.-When a cube tessellates it creates a cubic honeycomb shape.
