Which of the following correspondences between a crystal system and its unit cell parameters are correct?
ACubic: a=b=c, α=β=γ=60∘
BTetragonal: a=b=c, α=β=γ=90∘
CMonoclinic: a=b=c, α=γ=90∘, β=90∘
DHexagonal: a=b=c, α=β=90∘, γ=120∘
Answer: B, C, D
Cubic has all angles 90∘ (equal angles of 60∘ do not occur in the cubic system), so A is wrong. B, C and D are the standard definitions of tetragonal, monoclinic and hexagonal cells.
