Math Open Reference: Prism
Use this interactive tool to explore prisms. Change the height and the shape of the base to see how these affect the prism. There are also several additional options, e.g., making it oblique or transparent. Properties of a prism are...

Math Open Reference: Pyramid
Use this interactive tool to explore pyramids. Rotate the pyramid to view it from all sides. Increase the number of sides (even to well over 100) until it closely resembles a cone. The base can be made irregular and you can 'explode' the...
