Solution

Faces, Vertices and Edges in a Cylinder - Mechamath

Features of a Cylinder:

  1. A shape can have a face if it is a three-dimensional object or a solid.
  2. A cylinder is a three-dimensional shape.
  3. Therefore, a cylinder has two linear faces and one curved face.
  4. It has two edges, each corresponding to the bottom and the upper face.
  5. Since is a curved geometrical shape, it does not have any vertices.

Hence, a cylinder has two faces and one curved surface, two edges, and zero vertices.
