    In algebraic terms, doubling a unit cube requires the construction of a line segment of length x, where x 3 = 2; in other words, x = , the cube root of two. This is because a cube of side length 1 has a volume of 1 3 = 1 , and a cube of twice that volume (a volume of 2) has a side length of the cube root of 2.

    The cube can be represented as the cell, and examples of a honeycomb are cubic honeycomb, order-5 cubic honeycomb, order-6 cubic honeycomb, and order-7 cubic honeycomb. [46] The cube can be constructed with six square pyramids, tiling space by attaching their apices. [47] Polycube is a polyhedron in which the faces of many cubes are attached.
