Prism Power
This is the number of bases found on every prism.
What is 2?
Unlike a prism, a pyramid only has this many bases.
What is 1?
This is the mathematical term for the "corners" where edges meet.
What are vertices?
I have 6 faces that are all congruent squares.
What is a cube?
Between a cube, a sphere, and a rectangular prism, this one is not a polyhedron.
What is a sphere?
A prism with a base that has 5 sides is called this.
What is a pentagonal prism?
All lateral (side) faces of a pyramid meet at this single point at the top.
What is the apex?
This is the line segment where two faces meet.
What is an edge?
I have 5 faces, 8 edges, and 5 vertices.
What is a square pyramid?
Between a cylinder, a cone, and a prism, these two do not have polygons as bases.
What are the cylinder and cone?
This is the specific 2D shape of all lateral (side) faces on any prism.
What is a rectangle?
What is a triangle?
In a prism, these two faces are always congruent and parallel to each other.
What are the bases?
I have 9 edges and 2 triangular bases.
What is a triangular prism?
All prisms have rectangular sides, but this specific prism can have square sides.
What is a cube or square prism?
If a prism has a hexagonal base, it will have this many total faces.
What is 8?
If a pyramid has 8 edges, this is the shape of its base.
What is a square?
Calculate the number of edges on an octagonal prism.
What is 24?
I have 7 faces. Six are triangles and 1 is a hexagon.
What is a hexagonal pyramid?
True or False. A pyramid can have more vertices than a prism with the same base.
What is false?
A prism has 10 vertices. Name the shape of its base.
What is a pentagon?
This pyramid is the "minimalist" of the 3D world, with only 4 faces and 4 vertices.
What is triangular pyramid or tetrahedron?
Use Euler's Formula (F + V - E = 2) to find the edges of a shape with 7 faces and 7 vertices.
What is 12?
I have 15 edges and my lateral faces are rectangles.
What is a pentagonal prism?
I have 12 edges. I could be a rectangular prism or this type of pyramid.
What is a hexagonal pyramid?
