a triangular pyramid
The Mollweide Projection shows areas that land masses are larger and they are larger. The disorts are shape of land and direction.
The given net shows a hexagonal prism, which is a three-dimensional shape with two hexagonal faces and six rectangular faces connecting them. The hexagonal faces are the bases of the prism, while the rectangular faces are the lateral faces. When the net is folded along the edges and assembled, it forms a hexagonal prism with a regular hexagon as its base and top.

A sphere is continuous with no edges, so a "face" doesn't really apply. It has a surface, and if you consider that a "face" then it has one. If you are looking inside and out, then two. If you do not consider a surface a face, then it has no faces. I am not sure how you would explain it with Euler's formula.. I am curious as how you would explain it in this manner. Euler's formula shows that e^ix traces out the unit circle in the complex number plane as x ranges through the real numbers. Not sure what this has to do with faces of a sphere... Euler characteristic perhaps? I am still not sure what this tells me about the number of faces that a sphere has. This basically proves the Euler Characteristic. You can map any polyhedron inside the sphere and get the same result. Are you implying that since any number of F can be mapped, that a sphere has infinite number of faces? That is pretty neat if that is the conclusion. So in regards to answering the question, you can use your method and explain it to your students. I think they can handle it if you do it properly. Something of the nature: Imagine a shape/polyhedron inside a sphere. Now map out or project the vertices's and edges of the polyhedron onto the sphere. It is like having the shadows of the edges and vertices's being mapped onto the wall of the sphere. The mapped image still has vertices's and edges and faces. They are the same amount of faces as the original polyhedron. Now imagine any polyhedron or shape inside the sphere. You can do the same with as many sided and faced shape as you want. Thinking this way you can view the sphere having infinite faces because you can map out any shape/polyhedron this way, no matter the number of faces. Then they will have this embedded into their memory and think that a sphere will have infinite faces. If they ever major in math and take topology... they will learn that a sphere has no faces.Hope this helps.

conic projection
Sonar shows that the edges of continental shelves match the underwater slope known as the continental slope. This underwater feature marks the boundary between the continental shelf and the deeper ocean floor. The continental slope is steeper than the continental shelf and descends into the abyssal plain.
It shows the shape of the molecule
Iron filings interact with a bar magnet by aligning themselves along the magnetic field lines produced by the magnet. This creates a visible pattern that shows the shape and direction of the magnetic field.
An oval is simply two circles joined at the sides by straight edges. From your x/y comments (moved to discussion) I would assume what you're trying to draw is an ellipse, which the link below describes (it also shows an oval).

A Lewis structure diagram shows the outer layer of electrons in a covalent bond. It uses dots to represent the valence electrons of each atom involved in the bond, showing how they are shared between atoms to form the bond.
A Dot-And-Cross Diagram only shows the outer layer of the covalent bond's electrons.
