If we have a polyhedron, which of the following is true about its faces? Explain.
(1) It has 3 triangular faces.
(2) It has 4 triangular faces.
(3) It has 1 square and 4 triangular faces.
Answers
(1) This is not true. The minimum number of faces a polyhedron can have is 4. Hence 3 triangles cannot be the faces of a polyhedron.
(2) This is true. A polyhedron with 4 triangles as faces is known as a regular tetrahedron.
(3) This is true. A polyhedron with 1 square and 4 triangle faces is known as a square pyramid.
Hope it helps.....
