Geometric Solids

What is a geometric solid?

What is a geometric solid? A closed three dimensional object made up of flat surfaces which are geometric shapes.

How do we classify solids? We classify solids based on their faces, edges and vertices.

What IS a face? The flat surface on a solid figure

What is an edge? The line where two faces meet.

What is a vertex? The corner where edges and faces meet.

SUMMARY 1. ) Explain how faces, edges, and vertices are different.

Prisms What do these all They allis have at A prism a solid with have in common? parallelograms for sides least one set of and a set of parallel, parallel faces. congruent bases.

Triangular Prisms

Rectangular Prisms

Cubes

What are these Prisms?

SUMMARY 1. ) What is a prism?

Pyramids What do these all They allcommon? come towith a have in A pyramid is a solid triangular sides and point at the top. only one base.

Rectangular Pyramids

Triangular Pyramids

Which are pyramids?

SUMMARY 1. ) What is a pyramid? 2. ) Would you rather be a pyramid or a prism? Why?

Prism vs. Pyramids • One base Prisms • Two bases • Triangular sides Polygons • Rectangular sides Base • Point at top Face • No point at top • No parallel 3 D faces • Parallel faces

SUMMARY 1. ) Describe some differences between pyramids and prisms. 2. ) How could you turn a prism into a pyramid?

Cylinders What do these all They all have a set A cylinder is a solid with a have in common? ofsetparallel of parallel, congruent, circular bases.

Cylinders

SUMMARY 1. ) What is a cylinder? 2. ) How is a cylinder like a prism?

Cones What do these all They all have a circle at have in common? A cone is a solid with one the bottom and a circular base and a point at the top.

Cones

SUMMARY 1. ) What is a cone? 2. ) What do you think it would feel like to be a cone?

Cylinders vs. cones Cylinders • One base • Point at top • No parallel faces • Two bases circles Base Face 3 D • No point at top • Parallel faces

SUMMARY 1. ) Describe some differences between cylinders and cones. 2. ) Draw a picture of something in real life that contains a cylinder and a cone put together.
