What is edges and vertex?
In a 3-dimensional shape with polygonal faces, an edge is a straight line at which two faces meet. A vertex is a point where three or more edges meet. In solid shapes which are not polyhedra, an edge is still a line - possibly curved - where two faces meet. But a vertex can be any corner, for example, the point of a cone.
What is the difference between faces edges and verticies?
A face of a polyhedron is one of the flat surfaces. These are two dimensional objects. Two faces meet at an edge, which is a line - a one dimensional object. Three or more edges meet at a vertex which is a point. A point has no dimensions.
What are edges on a tetrahedron?
They are the sets of points (lines) at which two faces meet.
Where are the edges of a tetrahedron?
An edge is a line of a soild where two faces meet.
What are the faces vertices and edges for a triangular prism?
Triangular prisms have two triangular bases (parallel to each other) that are connect by three rectangles. Therefore, it has 5 faces (the flat shapes described earlier), 6 vertices (the corners where more than 2 faces meet), and 9 edges (the segments where only two faces meet).
