Answer:
Euler's Formula for Polyhedron: ... The theorem states a relation of the number of faces, vertices, and edges of any polyhedron. The Euler's formula can be written as F + V = E + 2, where F is the equal to the number of faces, V is equal to the number of vertices, and E is equal to the number of edges.
Given:
First step we have to find the number of faces, vertices and edges from the given diagram.
To prove:
Euler's formula, F+V-E=2
Solution:
a) From the first diagram
Number of faces(F)=6
Number of vertices (V)=6
Number of Edges (E)=10
Then F+V-E=6+6-10
Then F+V-E=6+6-10 =2
Hence the Euler's formula verified for (a).
b) From the second diagram
Number of faces=8
Number of vertices=12
Number of Edges=18
Then F+V-E=8+12-18
Then F+V-E=8+12-18 =2
Thus the Euler's formula verified for (b).
c) From the third diagram
Number of faces=5
Number of vertices=7
Number of Edges=10
Then F+V-E=5+7-10
Then F+V-E=5+7-10 =2
That fore the Euler's formula verified for (c).
