A polyhedron is a generic term for 3 dimensional objects which are bounded by polygonal faces. They can have 4 or more vertices, 6 or more edges and 4 or more faces. The numbers of vertices (V), edges (E) and faces (F) must also satisfy the Euler characteristic: F + V = E + 2.

If a polyhedron has 10 more edges than vertices how many faces does it have?

For all polyhedra: vertices + faces = edges + 2 The given fact is: edges = vertices + 10 → vertices + faces = vertices + 10 + 2 → faces = 12


How many less edges than vertices faces does an octahedron?

According to the Euler characteristic which applies to all simply connected polyhedra,# edges + 2 = # vertices + # faces. So the answer is 2 fewer.


What is the similarities of the pyramid and the prism?

They are polyhedra. The terms are generic, which means that neither name tells you how many faces, vertices or edges it has.


How many faces and vertices edges does a sqhere?

It depends on the exact mathematical definitions of the terms which are generally used in the context of polyhedra. However, in terms of the common usages of the terms, a sphere has one surface, and no vertices or edges.

What two shapes have the same number of faces and edges and vertices?

There are infinitely many sets. For example, a cube, cuboid, parallelepiped, rhombohedron and their less regular counterparts all have 6 quadrilateral faces, 12 edges and 8 vertices. There are similar sets for polyhedra with a different number of faces.
