1. Can a polygon have for its faces:
i. 3 Triangles ?

Sol.No, a polyhedron cannot have 3 triangles for its faces

ii. 4 triangles

Sol. Yes, a polyhedron can have four

triangles which is known as
pyramid
on triangular base.

4. How are prisms and cylinders alike?

Sol.A prism becomes a cylinder as the number of sides of its base

becomes larger and larger.

ii. How are pyramids and cones alike?

Sol. A pyramid becomes a cone as the

number of sides of its base
becomes larger and larger.
5. Is a square prism same as a cube? Explain.

Sol. No, it can be a cuboid also.

 Q Using Euler’s formula, find the unknown:

Faces 8
? 5 20
Vertices 6 ? 12
Edges 12 9 ?

Sol. In first column, F =?, V = 6 an E = 12

Using Euler’s formula, d
F +V – E = 2
\ F + 6 – 12 = 2
\ F – 6= 2
\ F = 2 +6
\ F= 8
Hence there are 8 faces.

Faces 8 5 20
Vertices 6 ?6 12
Edges 12 9 ?

Sol. In second F = 5, V = ? an E = 9
column,
Using Euler’s formula, d
F +V – E = 2
\ 5 +V – 9 = 2
\ V– 4=2
\ V= 2 +4
\ V= 6
Hence there are 6 vertices.
 Q Verify Euler’s formula for these solids.

Faces 8 5 20
Vertices 6 6 12
Edges 12 9 ?
30

Sol. In third column,F = 20, V = 12 an E = ?

Using Euler’s formula, we F +V d – E =2
seeF +V – E = 2
\ 20 + 12 – E = 2
\ 32 – E = 2
\ E = 32 – 2
\ E = 30
Hence there are 30 edges.
 Q Can a polyhedron have 10 faces, 20 edges and 15 vertices ?

Sol. F = 10, V = 15 and E = 2

Euler’s Formula
0
Then, we know Using Euler’s formula, F+V–E=2
L.H.S =F + V – E
= 10 + 15 – 20
= 25 – 20
L.H.S = 5
\ R.H.S = 2
L.H.S  R.H.S
Polyhedron having 10 faces, 20 edges and 15 vertices does not exist.
