How many balls of clay and straws are needed to make a hexagonal pyramid?
Fact: a polygonal pyramid has a polygon for a base. Fact: A polygon with n sides (straws) has n vertices (balls of clay). Fact: A pyramid has one vertex (clay) at the top. Fact: Each vertex of the base has a side (straw) that connects it to the top vertex (clay). Question: How many sides does a hexagon have? (base straws) Question: How many vertices does a hexagon have? (base clay) Question: How many vertices are there all together, including the top one? (clay) Question: How many sides connect the base to the top vertex? (side straws) Question: How many sides (straws) are there all together? (straws)
