Tetrahedron


Does a polyhedron have only one base?

Yes, a polyhedron is only made up of one base which is bordered by straight lines. Each face is in fact a polygon, a closed shape in the flat 2-dimensional plane made up of points joined by straight lines.


What shape has a triangular base and 3 other triangule faces?

The shape with a triangular base and three additional triangular faces is called a tetrahedron. It is a type of polyhedron that has four triangular faces, six edges, and four vertices. Tetrahedrons are one of the simplest three-dimensional shapes and are often studied in geometry and various scientific fields.

How many cations in a tetrahedron?

tetrahedron ( tetrahedra or tetrahedrons) is a polyhedron composed of four triangular faces, three of which meet at each corner or vertex. It has six edges and four vertices. The tetrahedron is the simplest of all the ordinary convex polyhedra and the only one that has four faces.The tetrahedron is the three-dimensional case of the more general concept of a Euclidean simplex.The tetrahedron is one kind of pyramid, which is a polyhedron with a flat polygon base and triangular faces connecting the base to a common point. In the case of a tetrahedron the base is a triangle (any of the four faces can be considered the base), so a tetrahedron is also known as a "triangular pyramid".A cation is a positively charged ion, which is an atom or molecule with one or more of its electrons removed.

What is a polyhedron that contains 0 bases?

A polyhedron has only polygonal faces and any one of them can be considered a base. Therefore a polyhedron with 0 bases cannot exist.


What polyhedron has 12 edges and triangular faces?

It's an Octohedron, which has 8 triangular faces. Think of one of the great pyramids in Egypt, with a square base and four triangular sides. Take two of these, turn one upside down, and glue them together along the square base. You wind up with 8 triangular faces, and 12 edges!
