Question

Which of the following terms correctly describe the object below. Check all that apply

a. pyramid
b. polygon
c. square
d. solid
e. polyhedron
f. prism

I think a,d,e but I'm very confused because i though all polyhedron are prism but this object doesn't have 2 faces. so I'm lost and i really need this to pass my current quiz.

Answer 1

how many sides

Answer 2

I attached an image of the object.

however, I count 5 not including the base.

Answer 3

theres 5 sides now do you know the definition of each shape

Answer 4

pyramid has just one base. Polygon has 3 line segments connecting? Square is just 4 sides. Solid is everything closing up. Polyhedron just means a lot of sides. and a prism I'm not 100% on.

Answer 5

a solid geometric figure whose two end faces are similar, equal, and parallel rectilinear figures, and whose sides are parallelograms

Answer 7

So is it everything but a square?

Answer 8

idk how many choices can you have

Answer 9

oh all that applies

Answer 10

its not a pyramid

Answer 11

not a square

Answer 12

i wouldnt say polyhedron either

Answer 13

I don't think it's a polygon because it's a 3-D figure. and it isn't a prism because it only has 1 space.

Answer 14

what you mean by 1 space?

Answer 15

sorry I meant to say face. I think prisms need two faces and this only has the one.

Answer 16

well have you ever seen a wall and walked all the way down to the other end and its the same shape as the other end

Answer 17

kinda relates to art class as well it reaches the horizon line so it looks smaller but if you walk all the way down there it's the same
