Prisms Definition: A prism is a solid in which the cross-sectional area remains the same. In other words the shape of the end is the same shape and size throughout the solid. Definition: The facesare the sides on a solid An edgeis where two faces meet. In other words the line drawn to represent a fold in the shape. Hidden edges are drawn with a dotted line. A Vertexis the name given for the corners. In other words where a number of edges meet. An edge face A Vertex
1. Cube Properties Number of faces = Number of edges = Number of vertices = Has planes of symmetry Has rotational symmetry from a given axes. 6 12 8
2. Cuboid Properties Number of faces = Number of edges = Number of vertices = Has planes of symmetry Has rotational symmetry from a given axes. 6 12 8
3. Triangular-based prism Properties Number of faces = Number of edges = Number of vertices = Has planes of symmetry Has rotational symmetry from a given axes. 5 9 6
4. Cylinder Properties Number of faces = Number of edges = Has planes of symmetry Has rotational symmetry from a given axes. 3 2
