How do you calculate the number of edges on a polyhedron if you know the number of faces and vertices?

Use Euler's Formula:
V = number of vertices
F = number of faces
E = number of edges
V+F = E+2
or
V+F-E = 2

A polyhedron with 12 vertices and 30 edges has how many faces?
A polyhedron has 30 edges and 12 vertices. How many faces does it have
Euler's rule for a polyhedron?
For a simply connected polyhedron,Faces + Vertices = Edges + 2
Why is a sphere not a polyhedron?
A sphere is not a polyhedron because it has no edges, no vertices and no flat faces The word 'polyhedron' means many faces.
How many faces does a polyhedron have with 18 edges and 12 vertices?
eight
What polyhedron has 12 vertices and 30 edges?
I do not believe that such a shape exists.
How many edges and vertices in a polyhedron?
The number of edges and vertices ina polyhedron will depend on the polyhedron one selects either to study, build or etc...
What is the name of a shape that has 5 faces 8 edges 6 vertices?
There is not a polyhedron with the given number of faces, edges and vertices.
A polyhedron with 12 vertices and 30 edges has how many faces?
A polyhedron has 30 edges and 12 vertices. How many faces does it have
What polyhedron have some a face but no edges and no vertices?
A polyhedron must have at least 4 faces, at least 4 vertices and at least 6 edges.
Which two shapes have thee same number of edges vertices and faces?
Any polyhedron can be deformed (its angles changed) without affecting the number of edges, vertices or faces.
Larissa made a model of of a polyhedron using 8 pieces of clay for vertices and 18 straws for the edges what type of polyhedron did Larissa make?
This polyhedron has 7 vertices and 12 edges.
What is the formula related vertices and edges?
There is not a specific formula fro vertices and edges. The Euler characteristic links the number of vertices, edges AND faces as follows: E + 2 = V + F for a simply connected polyhedron.
What mathematician proved that the sum of the number of faces and vertices of a polyhedron is two more than the number of its edges?
Euler.
What do edges and vertices have in relation?
Edges join two vertices. Three or more edges meet at a vertex (it could be two if not in a polyhedron).
Euler's rule for a polyhedron?
For a simply connected polyhedron,Faces + Vertices = Edges + 2
If a convex polyhedron has 12 edges and 8 faces then how many vertices does it have?
It has 6 vertices.
If you know the numbers of faces and vertices in a polyhedron how can you calculate the number of edges with out counting them?
the is a pattern example a rectangular prism has 6 faces , 8 vertices and 12 edges. the pattern is add 2 then add 4 so to calculate you should first find the pattern or if you need more help go to www.math.com.
