What is a shape called with more than 1 vertex that is a 3d shape?
3d shapes with plane faces are called polyhedra (singular = polyhedron). The minimum number of vertices is 4, there is no maximum.
How many more vertices than faces has a cube?
A cube has 8 vertices and 6 faces. Therefore a cube has 2 more vertices than faces.
Which has more sides a shape with six vertices or a shape with seven vertices?
The number of vertices does not determine the number of faces. If the shape with 6 vertices was a quadrilateral based bipyramid, it would have 8 faces. A hexagonal based pyramid has 7 vertices and 7 faces. So more vertices does not necessarily imply more faces.
Which geometric shape has 2 more vertices than faces?
A cube is a geometric shape which has 6 faces and 8 vertices ie .2 more vertices than faces
Which two 3-dimensional figures have the same number of faces?
A tetrahedron (4 triangular faces) is the only polyhedron that has a unique configuration of faces, edges and vertices. For any polyhedron with n (>4) faces, there is a prism with a pair of n-2 sided polygons as bases as well a pyramid whose base is an n-1 sided polygon. There are many other configurations for polyhedra with more faces. For example, there are ten [topologically] different figures with 6 faces: 3 of these are concave polyhedra.
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 vertices edges faces does a polyhedra have?
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.

What is the name of solid figures with more than six faces?
polyhedra
What 3D shape has some triangular faces?
There are infinitely many polyhedra with one or more triangular faces.
Which polyhedrons has more faces but less vertices?
An octahedron, for example. 8 faces, 6 vertices.
Which two 3-dimensional figures have the same number of faces?
A tetrahedron (4 triangular faces) is the only polyhedron that has a unique configuration of faces, edges and vertices. For any polyhedron with n (>4) faces, there is a prism with a pair of n-2 sided polygons as bases as well a pyramid whose base is an n-1 sided polygon. There are many other configurations for polyhedra with more faces. For example, there are ten [topologically] different figures with 6 faces: 3 of these are concave polyhedra.
Does a cube haves exactly 2 less vertices than faces?
No. A cube has 6 faces and 8 vertices - it has exactly 2 more vertices than faces.
Which 3 dimensional figure has faces that are always congruent and the same shape?
There are a few families of polyhedra with identical faces. There are none whose faces have 6 or more sides. There is no special name for polyhedra whose faces are pentagons or pentagrams. A dodecahedron is an example. If coplanar faces are disallowed, the only polyhedron with quadrilateral faces are the cube and rhombohedron. There are infinitely many polyhedra with equilateral triangular faces: the tetrahedron, octahedron and icosahedron are examples.
