POLYHEDRON
POLYHEDRA (pl. form)
A polyhedron is a tree-
dimensional shape with flat
faces. Each fase is a polygon.
They are platonic solids,
prisms and pyramids.

 Prisms
A prism is a polyhedron with two equal
polygonal bases, and its lateral faces are
parallelograms.

• Rectangular prism
• Triangular prism
• 2 square
bases
• 8 Vertices
• 12 Edges
 Pyramid
• A pyramid is a polyhedron
with a polygonal base and
triangular lateral faces.

Triangular pyramid
square pyramid
 Round bodies
These three types of space figures that are
not polyhedrons. These figures have curved
surfaces, not flat faces. There are three-
dimensional figures.
