No.

A polygon is a plane figure - i.e. it is 2-dimensional

A cone is a solid figure - i.e it is 3-dimensional

How many faces edges and vertices doess a cone have?

A face is a polygon. There are none on a cone. There is only one vertex at the top of the cone. Although the cone does not have a face it does have a lateral side and a base.


How many diagonals in a cone?

A cone does not have any diagonals in the traditional sense, as diagonals are defined in polygons. A cone has a circular base and a single vertex at the top, making it a three-dimensional shape rather than a polygon. Therefore, it does not possess diagonals like a polygon does.


Why is a cone not called a polyhedron?

A polyhedron is a solid object bounded by polygons. Polygons are plane shapes [bounded by straight lines]. The curved surface of a cone is not a polygon and so the cone is not bounded by polygons and therefore, a cone is not a polyhedron.


What is the parts of a cone prism?

There is no such things a combined cone prism. A cone has a polygonal shapes base with all ofthe points on the edge of the polygon rising up a certain height to one point from the center of the base polygon. A prism is two polygonal bases. These bases are connected on the edges and have a certain height.


Is a cone a pyramid or a prism?

A cone is a common pyramid-like figure where the base is a circle or other closed curve instead of a polygon. A cone has a curved lateral surface instead of several triangular faces, but in terms of volume, a cone and a pyramid are just alike.

Does a cone have three vertices?

No, a cone does not have three vertices. A cone has one vertex at the apex where the sides converge, and a circular base that does not have vertices in the traditional sense. The base is a continuous curve, so it does not contribute any vertices like a polygon would.
