Straight-sided solid shapes with flat faces, straight edges, and vertices.
Icosahedron: 20 triangular faces.
Prisms: Two identical ends with flat parallelogram sides.
Antiprisms: Similar to prisms but with triangular sides.
Pyramids: A polygonal base connected to an apex.
Oblique Pyramid: Apex offset from the base center.
Complex Polyhedrons: Include shapes like Archimedean solids with mixed regular polygons.
Shapes with curved surfaces, not classified as polyhedrons.
The total area covering the outer surfaces of a 3D shape.
Example: ( 10 * 10 = 100 \, {cm}^2 * 6 = 600 \, {cm}^2 ).
Pyramid:
Use slant height for triangular side calculations.
Prism:
Area of both ends + sum of side areas.
Cylinder:
( 2 * (\pi r^2) + ({circumference} * {height}) ).
Cone:
Base area ( (\pi r^2) ) + side area ( (\pi r * {slant height}) ).
Sphere:
Example (Tennis Ball): Diameter = 2.6 inches Radius = 1.3 inches.
( 4 * 3.14 * 1.69 = 21.23 \, {in}^2 ).
Torus:
The amount of space a 3D shape can hold.
- Cylinders, spheres, cones, and other shapes have specific formulas to calculate volume, often requiring knowledge of their dimensions.
- Units: Expressed in cubic units (e.g., ( {cm}^3, {m}^3 )) or liters.
Mastering these concepts ensures a solid understanding of 3D geometry for real-world problem-solving.
