PLEASE CHECK THIS OUT. Our own Aeronmelon is going through some shit at the moment and could use some help. Check it out here and consider an upvote or a comment to push it into activity. Sorry, not something I do often or will be spamming. But I care about my friend and if I can get a couple more eyes on his situation then I'm going to try to do what I can.
My life now feels complete with this incredibly important piece of information.
Wake up everyone, a new shape just dropped!
I thought area was for 2D things, and volume is for 3D things? Or does he mean surface area?
Well there's also the fact that this has more to do with biology than geometry. So this guy's a moron on multiple levels.
3D things have both a volume and an area. Like, how much wrapping paper do you need to wrap a gift box?
Yeah, surface area!
Wasn't this discovered years ago?
Looks like a pentagon on one side and hexagon on the other, aka soccerball pattern. I would be very surprised if the volumes don't work out close enough just approximating them with [average area of ends] x [length]
You know where to put it.
