its not a cube glass smart guy

A square glass is 2 dimensional suggesting that it cannot hold any volume. It's a cube glass, just calling it a square glass for the sake of the joke

never said it was a square either

then tell me professor, what is this sight we see before us?

that is a glass, what more do you want?

As to the shape since that's clearly what we're discussing here

Yes it is. There is not such thing as a square glass. For it to be a glass that can contain liquid, it must have height to it, thus, it is no longer a square, but a cube. Back to math classes for you.

thats funny cause math taught me a cube is closed on all sides

you think im wrong?

A cube is defined as a symmetrical three-dimensional shape, either solid or hollow, contained by six equal squares. Whether or not one of those squares (sides) are made up a tangible substance such as glass does not disregard the fact that there are 24 right angles and all the sides are joined together at a vertex of equal length. Back to basic geometry with you

True but in a general sense of reality for the sake of perspective, this definition which does define volume and actual measurements are used.

yes but the above picture is neither a square glass or a cube glass by definition. the question asked if you put it in a square glass would it be beer, so where am i wrong?

The picture above is absolutely a cube, how is it not a cube. There's no such thing as a square glass, as in accurate as it technically is, it's for the sake of the joke. Though not square, it is a cube, I am baffled at how you do not understand this...

thats is not a cube, you claim it is because it can be filled with something, but until that time it is not a cube, it is 5 equal sides touching each other and didn't your definition say six equal sides?

That's like saying this isn't a cube. Just because it can be filled with something isn't my only argument incase you forgot. Just because it's physical side isn't there, doesn't mean it isn't a cube. As long as it has the potential to be a cube supported by its vertexes and angles, it's a cube. It has 6 sides, just pretend someone broke through one of the sides, is it not a cube then?

like saying what isn't a cube?? and so what youre telling me is if i can pretend a side is there its really a cube. so pretending is reality now, that is awesome. what if i took out another side, would its still be a cube because i imagined the sides were there?

That's what math is, have you ever seen a cos or sin angle? Where is anything on the x and y plane that is applicable in the real world? Math is all relatable through a different dimension that isn't bound by physics. Is this not a cube because it doesn't have any of its sides? You clearly do not understand the fundamentals of basic math, get an education

no that is not a cube, if anything it is 12 rectangular prisms connected to each other

Stay in school, it's truly baffling how simple concepts flew over your head...

do yourself a favor, google "cube glass" see what you end up with. Try getting the same picture but googling or looking up whatever you would define it as, if you do I'll admit i'm wrong

what is your point? i get the same pictures typing in cube glass as i do square glass, does that mean everyone who posted those pictures is wrong? it can be labeled as a square glass but it clearly is not by definition a square, same goes for labeling it a cube glass, it is not, by definition, a cube.

Look up what an open cube is. It's sad knowing that all that money towards your calculus classes in college has gone to waste

heres what i was waiting for, you clearly just said an open cube, not a cube, an open cube. a cube is a cube is a cube. you take away a side and/or hollow it out it is no longer a cube. it has the shape of a cube, but it is not a cube
