Pulley

In geometry, a prismatoid is a polyhedron where all vertices lie in two parallel planes. (If both planes have the same number of vertices, and the lateral faces are either parallelograms or trapezoids, it is called a prismoid.)

If the areas of the two parallel faces are A₁ and A₃, the cross-sectional area of the intersection of the prismatoid with a plane midway between the two parallel faces is A₂, and the height (the distance between the two parallel faces) is h, then the volume of the prismatoid is given by $V={\frac {h(A_{1}+4A_{2}+A_{3})}{6}}$ (This formula follows immediately by integrating the area parallel to the two planes of vertices by Simpson's rule, since that rule is exact for integration of polynomials of degree up to 3, and in this case the area is at most a quadratic function in the height.)

Prismatoid families

Families of prismatoids include:

• Pyramids, where one plane contains only a single point;
• Wedges, where one plane contains only two points;
• Prisms, where the polygons in each plane are congruent and joined by rectangles or parallelograms;
• Antiprisms, where the polygons in each plane are congruent and joined by an alternating strip of triangles;
• Crossed antiprisms;
• Cupolae, where the polygon in one plane contains twice as many points as the other and is joined to it by alternating triangles and rectangles;
• Frusta obtained by truncation of a pyramid;
• Quadrilateral-faced hexahedral prismatoids:
  1. Parallelepipeds - six parallelogram faces
  2. Rhombohedrons - six rhombus faces
  3. Trigonal trapezohedra - six congruent rhombus faces
  4. Cuboids - six rectangular faces
  5. Quadrilateral frusta - an apex-truncated square pyramid
  6. Cubes - six square faces

Higher dimensions

In general a polytope is prismatoidal if its vertices exist in two hyperplanes. For example in 4-dimension, two polyhedra can be placed in 2 parallel 3-spaces, and connected with polyhedral sides.

  Hostgator tutorials on how to install Wordpress need not be complicated, especially when you will be dealing with a web hosting service that is friendly for novice webmasters and a blogging platform that is as intuitive as riding a bike. After that you can get Hostgator to host your domain and use the wordpress to do the blogging. Once you start site flipping, trust me you will not be able to stop. I cut my webmaster teeth on Control Panel many years ago, but since had left for other hosting companies with more commercial (cough, cough) interfaces. If you don't like it, you can chalk it up to experience and go on. First, find a good starter template design. When I signed up, I did a search for current "HostGator codes" on the web, which enabled me to receive a one-word entry for a discount. Your posts, comments, and pictures will all be imported into your new WordPress blog.
