Question

a) How are prism and cone alike? B) Verify Euler's formula for triangular prism

Answer 1

A ,cylinder is similar to a prism, but its two bases are circles, not polygons. Also, the sides of a cylinder are curved, not flat. A cone has one circular base and a vertex that is not on the base. B, Euler's formula for these and similar shapes. It states that for a polyhedron the number of faces plus the number of vertices minus the number of edges is always two. For a triangular prism, this formula holds true: (5 + 6 - 9 = 2). ... Total number of faces = 3 + 1 = 4 faces.
