These are terms which are used in the context of polyhedra. A polyhedron is a 3-dimensional, solid shape which is bounded by polygons. Every such polygon is a face. However, some faces are also called bases and this depends on the polyhedron.
All the faces of a pyramid, with the possible exception of one, are triangles. The one different face is called the base. In a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron) the face that is at the bottom is the base.
A prism has two identical, parallel faces which may be any polygon. All the other faces are rectangles. A non-rectangular faces are called the bases. In a cuboid all six faces are rectangles and so any pair of opposite faces are called bases.
What else can I help you with?
Is the base on a polyhedron considered a face?
Yes. A base on a polyhedron is a face and a base on a polygon is a side.
Any face of a prism can be considered as a base?
Any face that is not a base is a what
How many base and face does an octagon have?
It has one base and one face.
Is a face also a base on a 3D figure?
Sometimes. Any face can be defined as a base of a prism; but pyramids may have one face that is a base and not a triangle.
In a prism a face that is not a base of the figure and in a pyramid its faces that intersect at the vertex?
any face that is not a base is?
Can a base be a face on a polyhedron?
Yes. Just pick it up and put it down on another base and your old base becomes a face.
What and the difference between base and soap?
There is no clear difference between base and soap because soap is a base.
Does a cone have a face or does it have only a base?
First of all i need to say something about the the 1st answer a face is not the same as a base(expet for the cube) can you sit on your face i dont think sobut the truth and the answer is that it is a base not a face there are no faces on a cone
What is a face and a base?
The bottom or (Base) of a shape. Example...
What is the differences between base and height?
base is the 2D face of a figure the height is the extension of the 2D face That's why Area=Base*Height
What is a base in geometry?
a face
Can a base be a face?
Yes.
