Polyhedrons
An introduction to 3D Figures
What is a polyhedron?
3 Dimensional figure
Formed by polygons
Takes up space

Parts of a polyhedron
Face:
The flat polygonal surfaces
“sides”
Edge
Where the faces meet
Line segments
Vertex
Point of intersection of three or more edges
Where line segments meet

Prisms
Has two bases
Polygons
Congruent
Parallel
Faces
Connect the bases
Height is the altitude(perpendicular distance betweenthe bases)
Right Prisms
Faces are perpendicular to thebases
Height=altitude= perpendiculardistance
Oblique Prisms
Faces are NOT perpendicular
Pyramids
Only one base
Base determines type of pyramid
Has faces that meet at a common vertexes
Faces are always triangles

Cylinder
Define
Bases
Congruent
Parallel
Circles
If line connecting the bases isperpendicular to the bases, then itis a right cylinder, if not, its oblique.

Cone
Define
Has one circular base
Lateral surface meets at a vertexcalled an apex
Right Cone: when line from apex tobase is perpendicular to the base
Oblique Cone: Not perpendicular.Height is still the altitude.

Sphere
Define:
A set of all points from a givenpoint in space.
How is that different from a circle?
Parts
Center
Radius
