Imagine the primitive cubic lattice. Now imagine grabbing the top of it and stretching it straight up. All angles remain 90. What kind of primitive lattice have you made?

Hello everyone today, we are being given the falling problem. Consider the transformation of the primitive cubic lattice below. The transformation consists of extending the length on one dimension and compressing it on another. What type of primitive lattice was formed? So as it was stated, this is a cubic lattice. And so that's going to have the sides being A. Is equal to B. Is he good to see? And all of the angles are going to be equal to 90 degrees and so one side or one length was extended and compressed on another. So essentially none of these sides are going to be equal to one another. However, since the angles were not indicated to have changed, the angles are going to remain consistent being 90°. This configuration is known as and or so lambic Matisse. And so that is what this new structure here is referred to as overall. I hope this helped. And until next time.
