Visualizing the Qubit in 3D Space

To understand the roots of the Bloch sphere and how it relates to qubelets, we’ll work with the following qubit:

This qubit has three pentagon qubelets, each rotated 20° clockwise, and two triangle qubelets, each rotated 30° anticlockwise.

To draw the qubit in 3D space, we could use the standard Cartesian or rectilinear coordinate system that measures displacement along three orthogonal axes. But in situations ...
