Stable Cubes<br />
• Use the bar model of the cube you made in the activity on<br />
page 14.<br />
• Add the minimum number of face diagonals to make the cube<br />
stable.<br />
Another type of diagonal to consider is called the space diagonal.<br />
The space diagonal goes through the inside or space of the cube,<br />
connecting two vertices.<br />
It does not lie on any of the faces. In this drawing, the extra bar connects<br />
a vertex the upper back down to the vertex on the front bottom.<br />
12. How many space diagonals does a cube have? Show them all on<br />
