How many parallel edges and faces does a octahedron have?

Answer 1

Well, darling, an octahedron has 12 edges and 8 faces. So, to answer your question, it has zero parallel edges and faces. But hey, who needs parallel when you've got those sharp angles and sleek lines?

Answer 2

An octahedron is a closed 3-d shape with 8 polygonal faces. There are 257 topologically different convex octahedra. The number of parallel edges or faces will depend on the particular octahedron. A heptagon-based pyramid, for example, has no parallel edges nor parallel faces.
