How many edges does a pyramid have with a n-gon base?

It has 2n edges: n of these form the n-gonal base. From each vertex of the base one edge (so another n in all) goes to the apex of the pyramid.


What does a pyramid mean?

A pyramid is a polyhedron with a polygonal base (with n sides) and n triangular faces, attached to each edge of the base, which meet at a point (the apex) above the base.


What polyhedron has 3 vertecies?

None. The minimal vertex set from which you can construct a poly-n-chora is the n-simplex, or some deformation thereof, with n+1 vertices, as any n points fall in a single flat n-surface (that is unique unless the three points happen to also fall in the same n-1-surface).


How many edges and vertices does a pyramid have?

A pyramid is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with a polygonal base and a number of triangles rising from that base to meet at an apex. A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n-sides (or vertices) has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices and 2n edges, where n ? 3.


What is the difference between a pyramid and rectanguler prism?

A rectangular prism is a polyhedron bounded by six rectangular faces. A pyramid is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with a polygonal base and a number of triangles rising from that base to meet at an apex. A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n-sides (or vertices) has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices and 2n edges, where n ≥ 3.


How do you identify a pyramid?

It is a polyhedron: a 3-dimensional object with polygonal faces. It has one base that is a polygon with n sides. From each side there is a triangular face and these meet at a single point above (or below) the base. It can also be identified by its Euler characteristic: If the polygonal base is n-sided, the pyramid has n+1 vertices, n+1 faces and 2n edges.


What is a shape of pryamid?

A pyramid is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with a polygonal base and a number of triangles rising from that base to meet at an apex. A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n-sides (or vertices) has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices and 2n edges, where n >= 3.


What is the diagonal of 16-gon from one vertex?

If you mean "How many diagonals can be drawn from one vertex of a figure with 16 sides", the formula is n-3, where "n" being the number of sides of the figure. So 16-3 = 13 diagonals that can be drawn from one vertex.


How many balls of clay and straws are needed to make a hexagonal pyramid?

Fact: a polygonal pyramid has a polygon for a base. Fact: A polygon with n sides (straws) has n vertices (balls of clay). Fact: A pyramid has one vertex (clay) at the top. Fact: Each vertex of the base has a side (straw) that connects it to the top vertex (clay). Question: How many sides does a hexagon have? (base straws) Question: How many vertices does a hexagon have? (base clay) Question: How many vertices are there all together, including the top one? (clay) Question: How many sides connect the base to the top vertex? (side straws) Question: How many sides (straws) are there all together? (straws)


How many vertice of a pyrmaid?

A pyramid is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with a polygonal base and a number of triangles rising from that base to meet at an apex. A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n-sides (or vertices) has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices and 2n edges, where n >= 3.


How many faces does the pryamid have?

A pyramid is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with a polygonal base and a number of triangles rising from that base to meet at an apex. A pyramid whose base is a polygon with n-sides (or vertices) has n+1 faces, n+1 vertices and 2n edges, where n >= 3.


Which polyhedron has the same number of faces and vertexes?

A tetrahedron. In fact the family of pyramids. A pyramid, whose base is an n-sided polygon will always have n+1 faces and n+1 vertices.
