15. A polyhedron is a 3-dimensional figure whose surfaces are polygons.

16. The polygons are the faces of the polyhedron. An edge is a segment that is the intersection of two faces.

17. A vertex is a point where edges intersect.

18. A polyhedron is a solid that is bounded by polygons called faces, that enclose a since region of space. An edge of a polyhedron is a line segment formed by the intersection of two faces. Using properties of polyhedra

19. A vertex of a polyhedron is a point where three or more edges meet. The plural of polyhedron is polyhedra or polyhedrons. Using properties of polyhedra

20. Ex. 1: Identifying Polyhedra • Decide whether the solid is a polyhedron. If so, count the number of faces, vertices, and edges of the polyhedron.

21. This is a polyhedron. It has 5 faces, 6 vertices, and 9 edges. • This is not a polyhedron. Some of its faces are not polygons. • This is a polyhedron. It has 7 faces, 7 vertices, and 12 edges.

22. Types of Solids

23. A polyhedron is regular if all its faces are congruent regular polygons. A polyhedron is convex if any two points on its surface can be connected by a segment that lies entirely inside or on the polyhedron. Regular/Convex/Concave

24. If this segment goes outside the polyhedron, then the polyhedron is said to be NON-CONVEX, OR CONCAVE. continued . . .

25. Ex. 2: Classifying Polyhedra • Is the octahedron convex? Is it regular? It is convex and regular.

26. Ex. 2: Classifying Polyhedra • Is the octahedron convex? Is it regular? It is convex, but non- regular.

27. Ex. 2: Classifying Polyhedra • Is the octahedron convex? Is it regular? It is non-convex and non- regular.

28. Imagine a plane slicing through a solid. The intersection of the plane and the solid is called a cross section. For instance, the diagram shows that the intersection of a plane and a sphere is a circle. Note:

29. Describe the shape formed by the intersection of the plane and the cube. Ex. 3: Describing Cross Sections This cross section is a square.

30. Describe the shape formed by the intersection of the plane and the cube. Ex. 3: Describing Cross Sections This cross section is a pentagon.

31. Describe the shape formed by the intersection of the plane and the cube. Ex. 3: Describing Cross Sections This cross section is a triangle.

32. Polyhedron: a three-dimensional solid made up of plane faces. Poly=many Hedron=faces • Prism: a polyhedron (geometric solid) with two parallel, same-size bases joined by 3 or more parallelogram-shaped sides. • Tetrahedron: polyhedron with four faces (tetra=four, hedron=face).

33. Using Euler’s Theorem • There are five (5) regular polyhedra called Platonic Solids after the Greek mathematician and philosopher Plato. The Platonic Solids are a regular tetrahedra;

34. A cube (6 faces) A regular octahedron (8 faces), Using Euler’s Theorem • dodecahedron • icosahedron

35. Notice that the sum of the number of faces and vertices is two more than the number of edges in the solids above. This result was proved by the Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler. Note . . . Leonard Euler 1707-1783

36. Euler’s Theorem • The number of faces (F), vertices (V), and edges (E) of a polyhedron are related by the formula F + V = E + 2

37. The solid has 14 faces; 8 triangles and 6 octagons. How many vertices does the solid have? Ex. 4: Using Euler’s Theorem

38. Ex. 4: Using Euler’s Theorem • On their own, 8 triangles and 6 octagons have 8(3) + 6(8), or 72 edges. In the solid, each side is shared by exactly two polygons. So the number of edges is one half of 72, or 36. Use Euler’s Theorem to find the number of vertices.

39. Ex. 4: Using Euler’s Theorem F + V = E + 2 Write Euler’s Thm. 14 + V = 36 + 2 Substitute values. 14 + V = 38 Simplify. V = 24 Solve for V. The solid has 24 vertices.

40. Chemistry. In molecules of sodium chloride commonly known as table salt, chloride atoms are arranged like the vertices of regular octahedrons. In the crystal structure, the molecules share edges. How many sodium chloride molecules share the edges of one sodium chloride molecule? Ex. 5: Finding the Number of Edges

41. To find the # of molecules that share edges with a given molecule, you need to know the # of edges of the molecule. You know that the molecules are shaped like regular octahedrons. So they each have 8 faces and 6 vertices. You can use Euler’s Theorem to find the number of edges as shown on the next slide. Ex. 5: Finding the Number of Edges

42. Ex. 5: Finding the Number of Edges F + V = E + 2 Write Euler’s Thm. 8 + 6 = E + 2 Substitute values. 14 = E + 2 Simplify. 12 = E Solve for E. So, 12 other molecules share the edges of the given molecule.

43. SPORTS. A soccer ball resembles a polyhedron with 32 faces; 20 are regular hexagons and 12 are regular pentagons. How many vertices does this polyhedron have? Ex. 6: Finding the # of Vertices

44. Each of the 20 hexagons has 6 sides and each of the 12 pentagons has 5 sides. Each edge of the soccer ball is shared by two polygons. Thus the total # of edges is as follows. Ex. 6: Finding the # of Vertices E = ½ (6 • 20 + 5 • 12) Expression for # of edges. = ½ (180) Simplify inside parentheses. = 90 Multiply. Knowing the # of edges, 90, and the # of faces, 32, you can then apply Euler’s Theorem to determine the # of vertices.

45. Apply Euler’s Theorem F + V = E + 2 Write Euler’s Thm. 32 + V = 90 + 2 Substitute values. 32 + V = 92 Simplify. V = 60 Solve for V. So, the polyhedron has 60 vertices.
