What is the shape called that has 6 faces and 8 vertices?

There are many possible shapes. The most general, which has a specific name is a parallelopiped. A cube is a special case of a parallelopiped.


Is a rectangular prism a cube?

No. It is a parallelopiped. And, if it is a right rectangular prism then it is a cuboid.


Why is the volume of a tetrahedron 16th of a parallelopiped?

The volume of a tetrahedron is one-sixth of the volume of a parallelepiped because a tetrahedron can be thought of as a pyramid with a triangular base. When a tetrahedron is inscribed within a parallelepiped, it occupies one-sixth of the space defined by the parallelepiped's volume. Since a parallelepiped can be divided into six such tetrahedra, this means the volume of the tetrahedron is 1/6 of the parallelepiped. However, if the parallelepiped is defined by its full height and includes the whole base area, the tetrahedron's volume is one-sixteenth of the total volume when considering the full dimensions of the parallelepiped.


What is a solid with rectangular ends and parallelogram sides?

A parallelopiped has six faces that are parallelogram - like a cuboid that has been distorted by pushing opposite vertices in opposite directions (the three dimensional equivalent of distorting a rectangle into a parallelogram). A solid with two rectangular faces would be a special case of a parallelopiped.


What is a solid figure with 6 faces 8 vertices and 12 edges?

A shape with twelve edges?

Is called a Dodecagon. * * * * * A dodecagon is a 2-dimensional (plane) shape with 12 SIDES. The term EDGES is normally used in the context of 3-dimensional objects. One such shape is a parallelopiped. A cube is a special case of a parallelopiped. In 3-D, a parallelopiped is to a cube what, in 2-D, a parallelogram is to a square.

What is the volume of a cube that is 5 x 6 x 9?

First off, a cube cannot be 5 x 6 x 9. In a cube, the lengths of all the sides are the same.Volume of a cube = (length of side)3What you are referring to is a rectangular parallelopiped or a cuboid. The volume of a cuboid is length x breath x height.In the case, V = 5 x 6 x 9 = 270 cubic units
