Best Answer

A hexadecahedron is a closed 3-d shape with 16 polygonal faces. There are almost 388 billion topologically different convex versions and, since none of these are regular, the term is ambiguous.

How many vertices does a hexadecahedron?

A hexadecahedron is a closed 3-d shape with 16 polygonal faces. There are almost 388 billion topologically different convex versions and, since none of these are regular, the term is ambiguous. The number of vertices will depend on which specific 16-hedron you have in mind.


What is a 16 sided 3D shape called?

HEXADECAHEDRON is the correct name for a 16 sided 3D object


What does a hexadecahedron look like?

A hexadecahedron is a closed 3-d shape with 16 polygonal faces. There are almost 388 billion topologically different convex versions and, since none of these are regular, the term is ambiguous. There are, therefore, 388 billion images, together with variations of each which can be created by stretching and skewing (twisting) the shapes.


How many sides does a hexadecahedron have?

Sixteen. If made from sides (facets) consisting of equilateral triangles, it has nine vertices (points or corners) and twenty-four edges. Unlike its first cousin the icosahedron, not all points are equidistant from the center of the solid.


What is an 16 sided pyramid called?

Assuming it has 16 triangular sides plus a base making 17 faces in all, it would be a heptadecahedron. If it is a 16-faced shape then a hexadecahedron.Assuming it has 16 triangular sides plus a base making 17 faces in all, it would be a heptadecahedron.
