Solid: 3D figure that encloses a part of space.

Face: A flat surface or polygon that makes a solid.

Polygon: A closed figure made of three or more line segments.

Bases: A face of a solid usually located on the top or bottom of solid.

Lateral Face: Any side of a solid which is a polygon.

Edge: A line segment where two faces meet.

Vertex: A point where three or more edges meet.

1. Describe the shape of the solid’s base(s).

◦ 3 sides = Triangular◦ 4 sides = Quadrilateral: Square, Rectangular or Trapezoid◦ 5 sides = Pentagonal◦ 6 sides = Hexagonal◦ 7 sides = Heptagonal◦ 8 sides = Octagonal

2. Describe the shape as either a prism or a pyramid.

Name the solid that best describes each picture.
