Exercise 3 Page 755

Euler's Formula states that the sum of the number of faces F and vertices V of a polyhedron is two more than the number of its edges E.

6+8=12+2

Practice makes perfect
We will verify Euler's Formula for the given polyhedron. Let's consider the given 3-D figure.
We can see that this polyhedron has 6 faces, 8 vertices, and 12 edges. Euler's Formula states that the sum of the number of faces F and vertices V of a polyhedron is two more than the number of its edges E. Let's verify this!
F+V=E+2
6+ 8? = 12+2
14=14 ✓
