What is a polyhedron that has two congruent faces called?
A polyhedron that has 2 congruent faces is a PRISM. To be a prism, all the other sides (not including the 2 that are congruent) have to be 4-sided.
Can a prism have curved sides?
No, a prism cannot have curved sides. A prism is a polyhedron with two parallel and congruent polygonal bases connected by lateral faces that are parallelograms. The lateral faces of a prism are always flat, planar surfaces that are perpendicular to the bases. Curved sides would not meet the definition of a prism.
Does a rectangle have all congruent sides?
No, rectangles do not have congruent sides. Squares have congruent sides.
How many sides does a prism and a pyramid have?
A prism is any 3 dimensional geometric object with parallel bases which are congruent polygons. The lateral faces of a prism are parallelograms. We generally talk of an n-sided prism where n is a natural number telling us the number of sides the prism has. To be more precise an prism is a polyhedron with two congruent polygonal faces and all the remaining faces are parallelograms. A cube is a common example of a prism. It has six sides. A triangular prism has 5 sides. So the answer to the questions : how many sides does a prism have? is it all depends on the prism, it can have different number of sides. Now a pyramid is also a 3 dimensional shape but instead of two bases it has one base connected to a point called the apex. The base of a prism is a polygon and a prism is a polyhedron also. It can have different number of sides also so there is once again no fixed answer.
What shape has five congruent squares in it?
What solid figure has congruent squares on all six sides
What is a polyhedron that has two congruent faces called?
A polyhedron that has 2 congruent faces is a PRISM. To be a prism, all the other sides (not including the 2 that are congruent) have to be 4-sided.
What has 6 faces 12 edges and no sides are congruent'?
rectangular prism
Are all the faces of a prism rectangular?
No a rectangular prism has two sides on the end that are squares.
How many equal faces on a rectangular prism?
That all depends on the type of faces a prism has. Then, you should have at most 3 pairs of congruent faces on the opposite sides of the prism.
How many congruent faces are on a hexagonal prism?
The six sides of the prism are mutually congruent if the hexagon is a regular one. One base is also congruent to the opposite base. ----------------- (The illustration is an octagonal prism.)
Can a prism have curved sides?
No, a prism cannot have curved sides. A prism is a polyhedron with two parallel and congruent polygonal bases connected by lateral faces that are parallelograms. The lateral faces of a prism are always flat, planar surfaces that are perpendicular to the bases. Curved sides would not meet the definition of a prism.
The bace of this solid figure has4 congruent sides the faces are tryangles what are you?
it is a triangular prism with a square bottom
Does a rectangle have all congruent sides?
No, rectangles do not have congruent sides. Squares have congruent sides.
What shape has 6 rectanglges faces?
Could it be a hexahedron. A cube has 6 sides and they are squares. A rectangular prism has 6 faces that are rectangles.
How many sides does a triangler prisim have?
A triangular prism always has 5 sides. It has two triangular bases and 3 rectangular faces. If the bases are not congruent it is called an oblique prism.
How many faces a prism have?
My answer to that question is eight sides. * * * * * Actually, there is no single answer because a prism is a generic term which is used to describe a polyhedron with two congruent and parallel bases and a number of rectangular faces joining them. If the base is a polygon with n sides (n ≥ 3), then the corresponding prism has n+2 faces. So a prism can have 5 or more faces.
How many sides does a prism and a pyramid have?
