No. That would make them a prism.

No. A polygon is a 2-dimensional object ad so cannot be 3-d.

Also, there is no need for the shape to become a prism, as suggested by the previous answer.

Yes, they can. Vertices of 3D polygon all simply have 3 coordinates: (x, y, z).

Are Polygons a 2D or 3D shape?

2D.


How do you tell if a shape is 2d or 3d?

Polygons are 2d shapes whereas polyhedrons are 3d shapes


What is the properties of polyhedrons?

a polyhedron is any 3d figure with all flat polygons for sides(polygons have straight sides)


Are polgons and polyhedrons the same?

polygons are 2d(square), poly hedrons are 3d(cube)


What is odd one out?

It is the cube which is a 3D shape while the others are all 2D polygons


What 3D figure have polygons for bases?

Many 3-d figures can have polygons for bases. If all ist faces are polygons then it is a polyhedron but it is possible to have 3-d figures with a polygonal base and non-polygonal faces.

Are 3d shapes plane shapes?

No because 2d shapes are plane such as polygons but example of 3d shapes are: pyramid, cone, cuboid, cylinder, sphere ... etc


What is the difference between polygons and polyhedrons?

A polygon is a flat figure, like a square. A polyhedron is a 3D figure, like a cube.


Euler's rule for a polygon?

The rule applies to POLYHEDRA (3D shapes) not Polygons, which are 2D Faces + Vertices - Edges = 2


Why is the cone a solid but not a polyhedron?

The side that is curved, when placed by itself (without bending or manipulating in any way), is not a polygon, making the shape not entirely made of polygons. A 3D figure must be made by only polygons to be a polyhedron.


What is a 3D figure that has two parallel and congruent triangular bases in the shape of polygons?

They could be pentahedra in the form of triangular prisms or octahedra in the form of triangular antiprisms.
