Question

How many faces does a hexahedron have

Answer 1

6 faces

Answer 2

hexahedron in a simply-connected space will have 8 vertices, as others have suggested. A regular hexahedron is commonly called a cube, and there are also rectangular prisms or other possible forms, but the cube is a good model for counting the vertices.

Answer 3

A Cube (Hexahedron) has:

6 Faces
12 Edges
8 Vertices

Answer 4

A hexahedron in a simply-connected space will have 8 vertices, as others have suggested. A regular hexahedron is commonly called a cube, and there are also rectangular prisms or other possible forms, but the cube is a good model for counting the vertices.

Regardless of the form of the hexahedron, for simply-connected spaces, the Euler Characteristic is 2, giving the formula 2 = V - E + F, where V is the number of vertices, E is the number of edges and F is the number of faces. In this case we have 2 = V - 12 + 6, or
V = 2 + 12 - 6 = 8.
