Prisms and Polyhedrons

Prisms and Polyhedrons. A closed spatial figure composed of polygons, called the faces of the polyhedron. The intersections of the faces are the edges of the polyhedron. The vertices of the faces are the vertices of the polyhedron. What is a polyhedron?. Examples.

  1. Prisms and Polyhedrons

  2. A closed spatial figure composed of polygons, called the faces of the polyhedron. The intersections of the faces are the edges of the polyhedron. The vertices of the faces are the vertices of the polyhedron. What is a polyhedron?

  3. Examples

  4. A polyhedron that consists of a polygonal region and its translated image of a parallel plane, with quadrilateral faces connecting corresponding edges. Prism

  5. A right prism is a prism in which all of the lateral faces are rectangles. An oblique prism has at least one nonrectangular lateral face Types of prisms

  6. What type am i?

  7. A prism is named by the shape of its base • Types • Triangular prism • Rectangular prism • Pentagonal prism • Hexagonal prism How do we name prism?

  8. Pretty Prisms!

  9. The faces formed by the polygonal regions and its image are each called a base of the prism. The remaining faces, which are quadrilaterals, are called the lateral faces of the prism. The edges of the lateral faces that are not edges with either base are called the lateral edges. Parts of prisms

  10. In a right rectangular prism with the dimensions l x w x h, the length of the diagonal is given by: Diagonal of right rectangular prism
