What do you notice about the number of edges on a prism compared to the number of faces the shape has?
In a prism, the number of edges is always twice the number of faces, minus two. This is because a prism has two parallel bases (faces) and additional rectangular faces connecting them, resulting in more edges. Specifically, if a prism has ( n ) faces, it will have ( 3n - 6 ) edges, confirming this relationship. Thus, for every face added, there are generally two more edges created.
What else can I help you with?
How many faces will you find on a cube and how can you figure out how can you use this to figure out the number of edges it has?
A cube has 6 faces. The number of faces, alone, is not sufficient to figure out the number of edges. For example, a cube has 12 edges. A pentagonal pyramid also has 6 faces, but it has 10 edges.
What figure has twice as many edges as faces?
A polyhedron that has twice as many edges as faces is known as a triangular prism. In a triangular prism, there are 5 faces (two triangular bases and three rectangular lateral faces) and 9 edges. This means the number of edges (9) is indeed twice the number of faces (5), satisfying the condition of having twice as many edges as faces.
How many faces does a triangular pyramid have and number of vertics and edges?
4 faces. 4 vertices. 6 edges.
How can you calculate the number of edges on a polyhedron given only the shapes?
The answer will depend on what is known of the shape. If you know only the number of faces, or only the number of vertices, then you cannot work out the number of edges. If you only know the shapes of the faces you cannot.The answer will depend on what is known of the shape.

How many edges does a octangonal prisom have?
10 number of faces +2 gives you the number of edges
What do you notice about the number of edges on the base and the number of faces?
they are congruently uneven evenly
How is the total number of sides of the faces related to the number of edges?
Faces + Vertices = Edges + 2
Is the number of edges on a cube triple the number of its faces?
No, it is not. A cube has 12 edges and 6 faces.
What is the relationship among the vertices's faces and edges of polyhedrons?
If you add the vertices and Faces and subtract 2 from that number you get the number of edges. Vertices+Faces=Edges+2
In a triangular prism what is the relationship between the number of faces and the number of edges?
there are 5 faces and 6 edges
What is a shape that has equal number of faces equal number edges and equal number of vertices?
A sphere- there are no faces, edges or vertices

In a triangle prism how does the number of faces compare to the number of edges?
A triangular prism has 5 faces, 9 edges and 6 vertices
What is the number of faces edges and vertices of a pentagonal prism?
It has 7 faces, 15 edges and 10 vertices
What is the relationship between faces vertices and edges in prisms?
In a prism, the number of faces, vertices, and edges are related by the formula F + V - E = 2, known as Euler's formula. For a prism, which has two parallel and congruent faces connected by rectangular faces, the number of faces (F) is equal to the sum of the number of rectangular faces and the two congruent bases. The number of vertices (V) is equal to the number of corners where edges meet, and the number of edges (E) is equal to the sum of the edges around the bases and the edges connecting the corresponding vertices of the bases.
