Complete the following table by filling the number of faces, the number of faces, the number of edges and the number of vertices for the given solid:
Solid | Number of faces | Number of edges | Number of vertices |
Cuboid/Cube | |||
Triangular prism | |||
Hexagonal prism | |||
Triangular pyramid | |||
Square pyramid | |||
Pentagonal pyramid |
Every individual flat surface of a solid is called its face.
The line segment which acts as an interface between two faces is called an edge. Sometimes it is also described as the line segment joining two vertices.
Vertex is a point where two or more edges meet.
A cuboid and cube has faces, edges, and vertices.
A triangular prism has faces, edges, and vertices.
A hexagonal prism has faces, edges, and vertices.
A triangular pyramid has faces, edges, and vertices.
A square pyramid has faces, edges, and vertices.
A pentagonal pyramid has faces, edges, and vertices.
Hence, the complete table is given below:
Solid | Number of faces | Number of edges | Number of vertices |
Cuboid/Cube | |||
Triangular prism | |||
Hexagonal prism | |||
Triangular pyramid | |||
Square pyramid | |||
Pentagonal pyramid |
