<p><b>New page</b></p><div>In [[geometry]], a '''torus''' (plural '''tori''') is a surface of revolution generated by revolving a [[circle]] in [[Three-dimensional space (mathematics)|three-dimensional space]] about an axis coplanar with the circle.<br />
<br />
== Description ==<br />
<br />
If the axis of revolution does not touch the circle, the surface has a ring shape and is called a torus of revolution.<br />
<br />
Real-world examples of toroidal objects include inner tubes, swim rings, and the surface of a doughnut or bagel.<br />
<br />
A torus should not be confused with a solid torus, which is formed by rotating a disk, rather than a circle, around an axis.<br />
<br />
A solid torus is a torus plus the volume inside the torus.<br />
<br />
Real-world approximations include doughnuts, vadai or vada, many lifebuoys, and O-rings.<br />
