Can a polygon be a solid?

No. A polygon is a plane area bounded by straight lines. The key term in this context is "plane". It is, therefore, 2 -dimensional shape. A solid, which is bounded by faces that are polygons, is called a polyhedron (plural = polyhedra).


What is a one rounded side and that has three straight sides?

As a solid, it could be an eighth of an ellipsoid. Like one segment of a spherical fruit, cut in half along the three mutually vertical axes.

There is no such solid.


What are the different terms in solid mensuration?

1. Plane Figures- A flat, closed figure that is in a plane- A plane figure can be made of straight lines, curved lines, or both straight and curved lines.2. Solid Figures- The figures which occupy space are called solids.- Solids are three dimensional figures i.e., they have length, breadth & height.- There are two important facts related to solids-a. Every solid has a surface area. Some solids have plane surfaces, others have curved surfaces.b. Every solid has a 'bulk' & its bulk occupies some space.3. Surface area-It is the sum of areas of all visible (exposed) surfaces of a solid.4. Volume-It is the three dimensional space occupied by a solid, liquid or gas.5. Lateral surface area - is the sum of the surface areas of all its faces excluding the base.6. Total surface area - is the sum of the surface areas of all its faces including the base.

How do you complete level 71 100 Floors?

Put the patterns in each of the blank spots that is the complete opposite of the pattern across from each spot. For instance, if there is a line with a break, put in a solid line instead. So, the top one (opposite bottom) should be three solid lines. The left one should be a broken line on top, and then two solid lines, and the right one should be two solid lines on top and then a broken line on the bottom. See related link for screenshots.
