what is the minimum number of faces required to form a solid
Answers
Answer:
6 faces are required to form a solid of shape of cube or cuboid
Answer:
A solid can be formed even without a face. Eg : Sphere have no faces only a curved surface
Step-by-step explanation:
A solid is a figure or shape that has 3 (or more) dimensions
It should have a volume along with the surface area
And faces is a flat surface that forms the boundary of the solid
Here, let us take some examples
A sphere has no faces but has a curved surface area
For a sphere, a face is a flat surface and should be a part of a plane , so the curved surface of sphere is not a face
Also, if we consider sphere has infinite faces according to Euler's formula , then it has no area
So, we can conclude that a sphere has no faces
A cone has 1 face and a curved surface
A cylinder has 2 faces and a curved surface area
A triangular pyramid has 4 faces
A square pyramid has 5 faces
A cube has 6 faces
Here, sphere is a solid shape but it does not have any faces.
So even with a zero face, a solid can be formed
So, a solid can be formed even without a face
