THE GEOMETRIC SOLIDS

By: Ryan R.

Faces, Edges, and Vertices

First of all, the face is the flat surface of the geometric solids. Next, the edges are wear the faces meet.

Now the vertices are corners for the shape that you will learn once you get older in the geometric solids unit.

The Cube

The cube has 6 faces, 12 edges, and 8 vertices. That’s just a little picture of 3D cube right there

Real Life Cubes

The Sphere

This might surprise you, but the sphere doesn’t have any faces, edges, or corners at all! It’s strange, just kidding!

Real Life Spheres

The Cylinder

The cylinder has 2 faces, 0 edges, and 0 vertices. The cylinder is like a pop can or a some trash cans in the school.

The Cone

The cone has 1 face, 0 edges, and 1 vertices. The cone is like a pyramid or an ice cream cone upside down.

The Triangular Prism

The triangular prism has 5 faces, 9 edges, and 6 vertices. The triangular prism is like a really long pyramid or something.

The Rectangular Prism

The rectangular prism has 6 faces, 12 edges, and 8 vertices. The rectangular prism is like a cinder block or a block of butter.

Real Life Rectangular Prisms

The Rectangular Pyramid

The rectangular pyramid has 5 faces, 8 edges, and 5 vertices. The rectangular prism is like a pyramid with a square base.

The Triangular Pyramid

The triangular pyramid has 4 faces, 5 edges, and 4 vertices.
