It can, but it need not have parallel lines.

How many parallel lines does an octahedron have?

The 12 edges of a regular octahedron consist of 6 parallel opposite pairs. In fact, the 12 edges form 3 squares.


Are all the faces on a octahedron parallel?

Not necessarily. A heptagon-based pyramid is an octahedron and it has no parallel faces.


How many parallel lines in an octahedron?

An octahedron is a closed 3-d shape with 8 polygonal faces. There are 257 topologically different convex octahedra. Some of these have no parallel sides whereas a right hexagonal prism has 3 quartet of parallel sides and one sextet.


How many parallel edges and faces does a octahedron have?

Well, darling, an octahedron has 12 edges and 8 faces. So, to answer your question, it has zero parallel edges and faces. But hey, who needs parallel when you've got those sharp angles and sleek lines?

Is anything parallel on an octahedron?

An octahedron is a closed 3-d shape with 8 polygonal faces. There are 257 topologically different convex octahedra. Whether or not anything is parallel depends on which of these octahedra you have in mind and, furthermore, which version.For example, the general hexagonal prismoid will have nothing in parallel. But a special case of the same topological octahedron, a right hexagonal prism, has 4 pairs of parallel faces. It also has three quartets and one sextet of edges that are parallel.


How many parallel faces does an octahedron have?

There are 257 topologically different convex octahedra. Many of these will have no parallel faces. It can have four pairs of parallel faces.
