Question

Which of the following is not a true statement?

1. All prisms are three-dimensional.

2.The lateral faces on all prisms are rectangles.

3.All prisms have a pair of congruent bases.

4.The total number of faces is the same for all prisms.

Answer 1

i think it is 4 but i don't know if am right

Answer 2

total number of faces is not same. it depends on the base of the pyramid. so 4 is incorrect.

Answer 3

so its 3

Answer 4

r u there

Answer 5

3

Answer 6

thank u

Answer 7

Answer 23

lol

Answer 24

1) all prisms are 3 dimensional - true
2) lateral faces are rectangles - true (can be seen easily)
3) have pair of congruent bases - true (yes they have two bases that are congruent)
4) faces are same (NO)

Answer 25

ur best gtg thank u

Answer 26

yw :)

Answer 27

2.The lateral faces on all prisms are rectangles. False.
(If the prism is oblique, then the lateral faces are parallelograms. See attached drawing from http://rhlmath.com/prisms.html .

4. 4.The total number of faces is the same for all prisms. False as shown above by @ganeshie8
