No. There are only five Platonic Solids; Tetrahedron, Hexahedron, Octahedron, Dodecahedron and Icosahedron, with 4,6,8,12 and 20 faces respectively.

Instructions on how to make platonic solid?

There are only five geometric solids that can be made using a regular polygon and having the same number of these polygons meet at each corner. The five Platonic solids (or regular polyhedra) are the tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron


Is a polyhedron a cube?

A polyhedron is a solid with flat faces - a cube is just one of many different examples of regular polyhedra - otherwise known as platonic solids.


How many regular convex spherical polyhedrons exists?

None, since polyhedons cannot be spherical. A regular polyhedron must be convex, so that word is superfluous. There are 5 regular polyhedra - the Platonic solids.


Meaning of each platonic solid?

There are 5 platonic solids which are the only 5 regular polyhedra (possible).Plato attributed 4 of them to the 4 elements:Fire ≡ TetrahedronEarth ≡ CubeAir ≡ OctahedronWater ≡ IcosahedronAristotle added the fifth element "Ether" saying the heavens were made of it; he did not associate the fifth platonic solid, the Dodecahedron, to it.


What solids have 12 edges?

A cube has 12 edges as does an octahedron and those are the two platonic solids (convex polyhedra with congruent regular polygons as faces where the same number of faces meet at each vertice) with 12 edges.


What are platonic solids and what do they look like?

The five Platonic solids are regular polyhedra. They are convex shapes which are created from regular polygonal faces, such that the number of faces meeting at each face is the same.The five are:tetrahedron - 4 triangular faces;hexahedron (or cube - 6 square faces;octahedron - 8 triangular faces,dodecahedron - 12 pentagonal facesicosahedron - 20 triangular faces.To see their images, search Google for Platonic Solids.


What are the plationic solids?

Platonic solids are convex regular (equiangular) polyhedra. There are five Platonic solids: the tetrahedron, or pyramid (four equilateral triangles for faces; traditionally associated with the element Fire), the octahedron (eight equilateral triangles; traditionally associated with Air), the icosahedron (twenty equilateral triangles; traditionally associated with Water), the cube (six squares for faces; traditionally associated with Earth), and the dodecahedron (which has twelve regular pentagons for faces and is associated with the legendary Luminiferous Aether that had often been considered an element). These are the only existing regular polyhedra that exhibit convexity; other, non-convex regular polyhedra (meaning that there are angles between some of their faces that are less than 180 degrees as measured from the outside surface) exist and are known as star polyhedra.
