Sign In
A polyhedron is a space figure — a three-dimensional figure — whose surfaces are polygons. Each polygon is a face of the polyhedron. An edge is a segment that is formed by the intersection of two faces and a vertex is a point where three or more edges intersect.
Faces: 7
Edges: 15
Vertices: 10
A polyhedron is a space figure, — a three-dimensional figure — whose surfaces are polygons. Each polygon is a face of the polyhedron. Let's see the given figure with the vertices labeled.
We can see that our polyhedron has 15 edges. These are AB, BC, CD, DE, EA, GH, HI, IJ, JF, FG, AF, BG, CH, DI, and EJ. Finally, recall that a vertex is a point where three or more edges intersect.
Our polyhedron has 10 vertices. These include A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J. Let's summarize our results!
| Faces (7) | Edges (15) | Vertices (10) |
