The red line. What do you call it in english? Just diagonal?
Yup, that would be would I would call it. Unless there is some crazy geometrical term for a 3 dimensional version.
I would call it "a diagonal line through the center of a rectangular prism"
I'm asking because we use the word "avaruuslävistäjä" ("space diagonal") here in Finland to describe a 3d diagonal.
Diagonal
Apparently 'space diagonal' exists in english also, but I have never heard it used. Triagonal and volume diagonals are also appropriate.Gawwad wrote:
