¶ Sphere
Index Entry
Sphere:
"The sphere is not a minimal system because no completely enclosed surface exists and therefore no line spherical integrity. The sphere has a plurality of sides which makes it a polygon reducible to triangles and hence, tetrahedron.
"The sphere on the other hand encloses or defines more volume with the least surface than any other geometric figure.
“… The sphere is an invisibly multifaceted polyhedron–each facet reducible to trusses and hence to triangles.”
