Tetrahedron: Quarter-Tetrahedra:
“The regular tetrahedron may be divided volumetrically into four identical Quarter-Tetrahedra, with all their respective apexes at the center of volume of the regular unit tetrahedron. (See illus. 913.01 (Gray). The Quarter-Tetrahedra are irregular equiangle-triangle-based pyramids formed upon each of the four triangular bases of the original unit tetrahedra with their four interior apexes congruent at the regular tetrahedron’s volumetric center, and they each have a volume of one quarter of the volume of the regular tetrahedron of volume-1.”
