Question

Can a polyhedron have for its faces
(1) 3 triangles?
(ii) 4 triangles?
(m) a square and four triangles?
Is it possible to have a polyhedron with any given number of faces? (Hint: The
a pyramid).​

Answer 1

Answer:

4 triangle is the right answer

Answer 2

Answer:

• Polyhedron: A three-dimensional figure whose faces are all polygons.

 

Regular polyhedrons: A polyhedron is said to be regular if its faces are made up of regular polygons and the same number of faces meet at each vertex.  

• Prism: A polyhedron whose bottom and top faces (known as bases) are congruent polygons & faces known as lateral faces are parallelograms.

 

When the side faces are rectangles, the shape is known as right prism.

 

• Pyramid: A polyhedron whose base is a polygon and lateral faces are triangles

with a common vertex.

A prism or a pyramid is named after its base. Thus a hexagonal prism has a hexagon as its base; and a triangular pyramid has a triangle as its base

 

Face: A flat surface of a three dimensional figure.

Edge: Line segment where two faces of solid meet.

 

• Vertex: A point where three of more edges meet.

 

• Base: The face that is used to name a polyhedron.

========================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

       

Solution:

(i)  A polyhedron cannot have 3 triangles for its faces.

(ii) A polyhedron can have four triangles which is known as pyramid on triangular base.

(iii)  A polyhedron has its faces a square and four triangles which makes a pyramid on square base.
