How many vertices does an octahedron have?
An octahedron, which is a 3-dimensional solid, has 6 vertices. It has 8 sides, each of which is an equilateral triangle (in the case of the regular octahedron). This solid shape looks like two square pyramids joined base to base. Use the link and surf on over to Wikipedia to see a picture.* * * * *An octahedron is the name for a non-specific shape.It could, as described above, be a rectangular bipyramid with 6 vertices.Or it could be a heptagonal pyramid, in which case it has 8 vertices.Or it could be a hexagonal prism, in which case it has 12 vertices.There are other octahedra (or octahedrons).
