How does a cylinder have 3 faces and 2 edges?

Answer 1

A face is considered as a plane or surface in Geometry. Think of a pop can, there are two faces on the top and bottom of the can. There is also the label which sits of the body of the can. The body is a surface so it is considered a face as well. For the edges, edges are sharp areas on a surface where two faces meet. Still thinking of the pop can example, the rim on the top and the rim on the bottom of the can are the edges. Thus, a cylinder has 3 faces and two edges.
