What are the three types of polygons that can be the faces of a Platonic solid?
The polygons are the equilateral triangle, the square, and the regular pentagon. The faces of these platonic solids are made from the following polygons: tetrahedron - 4 triangles cube - 6 squares octahedron - 8 triangles dodecahedron - 12 pentagons icosahedron - 20 triangles
How many platonic solids are their?
There (not their) are 5 platonic solids.
What is the shape that has four congruent equilateral triangles?
The regular tetrahedron - one of the 5 platonic solids.
What platonic solid is a pyramid?
The platonic solids are: a tetrahedron, a cube, an octahedron, dodecahedron and icosahedron. A pyramid has a base with triangles attached to it with a common vertex. The platonic solid that is a pyramid is a tetrahedron (a triangular based pyramid).
What shape has 4 faces which are congrugent triangles?
A four faced figure is a tetrahedron. If they are all congruent triangles, they are all equilateral triangles and it is a regular tetrahedron - one of the 5 Platonic Solids.
Which of the following Platonic solids is made from squares?
hexahedron, cube
How many edges does a platonic solids have?
There are different numbers on the different platonic solids.
What book discusses the platonic solids?
The book called Platonic Solids: The experience
Who descoverd the platonic solids?
We don't know for certain who discovered the platonic solids first. However, Pythagoras is credited by some sources as discovering the platonic solids first. Other sources credit Theaetetus as being the first to describe all five platonic solids and proving that these are the *only* platonic solids.
What is a 3D shape using a pentagon called?
