Visualize the 4th, 5th & 6th dimension

<p>Let&rsquo;s try and imagine the 3rd dimension in another way. Let&rsquo;s say there is a tiny ant walking along a huge sheet of paper. Let&rsquo;s assume the huge sheet of paper is folded to form a massive cylinder. For the ant, as it is very tiny, it will appear no different walking on flat sheet or along the huge cylinder. Think of this as that the ant is not able to visualise the higher dimension (3rd) &mdash; or is a &lsquo;flatlander&rsquo;. It thinks it is just walking in a straight line, but actually it is walking in a circle. Say we have 3 points in a sheet of paper &mdash; A in a corner of an edge, B in the middle of that edge and C at the other corner of that edge. When the sheet is in 2 dimensions the ant moves from A to B to C. Now let&rsquo;s create a cylinder and join A &amp; C. Now the ant can move from B to A and then magically transport to C. We can visualise this, but the ant (flatlander) cannot.</p> <p><a href="https://polygyan.medium.com/visualizing-higher-dimensions-i-5dbbfbc8ac2f"><strong>Learn More</strong></a></p>
