1. Scenery. Finishing out the flat terminology, a corner block is the method of reinforcing the joint between the rails and stiles in the corners on the back side of the flat. These are a 45 degree isosceles triangle with sides 6"-12" of some thin material like 1/4" plywood (preferred) or Luan or Masonite (occasionally acceptable). For strength,when using plywood, which always has an odd number of layers, the grain should run perpendicular to the joint.

2. Entertainment trussing. A cube that allows box truss sections to be connected at right angles to each other. The most versatile is the Six-way Corner Block which allows sections to be joined in any dimension.
