Talk:Edge (geometry)

I changed the definition to "joining two adjacent zero-dimensional vertices" because the diagonal of a cube (or square) is not an edge. Do you agree?

Maybe we could also change/add to the definition to allow for polytopes. Aacehm (talk) 16:18, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Remove zero-dimensional and one-dimensional?

I think that we can remove the word "zero-dimensional" and possibly "one-dimensional". A vertex is a point, which is zero-dimensional. While an edge is a line segment, the article on line segment does not explicitly mention a line segment as being one-dimensional, which might lead to some confusion.

Yes, they seem redundant. I added some pictures and more text for edges on higher figures... Tom Ruen (talk) 22:46, 14 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
