Grade F/G Properties of 3 D Shapes Identify the properties of 3 D shapes including cubes, cuboids, cylinders, pyramids, cones and spheres. If you have any questions regarding these resources or come across any errors, please contact helpful-report@pixl. org. uk
Key Vocabulary Parallel Side Vertex/vertices Faces Edges Equal
How to identify 3 D shapes Prisms V Pyramids have all faces (except the base) meet at a point. Faces = vertices = edges on base+1 Prisms can be cut to make identical slices – like a loaf of bread.
How to identify 3 D shapes another important 3 D shape…. . A sphere is a ball -like shape – you need to know the proper name.
Example Name the 3 D shape that has 6 edges and 4 vertices: If it is a pyramid, there will be 3 edges on the base and 3 that meet at a point. If the base has 3 sides, it is a triangle. Triangular Based Pyramid OR Tetrahedron
Practice Give the name of each of the 3 D shapes associated with these properties – there may be more than one possibility. 1) There are 5 vertices and 8 edges. 2) There are 6 vertices. 3) All of the sides of this object are equal 4) There are no vertices and one face. 5) There are 2 edges and no vertices 1) Square based pyramid. 2) Triangular prism, pentagonal based pyramid 3) Cube, Tetrahedron…. 4) Sphere 5) Cylinder
Reasoning. Name all of the 3 D shapes that have circular properties and describe the circular properties Cylinder has circular bases. Cone has a circular base Sphere has a circular shape when drawn in 2 D
