3D shapes vocabulary by Bernard Dalton https://padlet.com/glengurtns_bdalton/io4b43jtqz70 en-us 2018-03-20 10:12:28 UTC 2025-12-13 01:37:05 UTC hello@padlet.com Pyramids glengurtns_bdalton https://padlet.com/glengurtns_bdalton/io4b43jtqz70/wish/243933669  Definition:
A pyramid is a 3-dimensional shape whose base is a polygon.

Sentence:
The Pyramids of Giza are pyramids. 

Fun Fact:  
  1.  A polygon  is a 2-dimensional shape.  It has 3 or more edges.  A polygon has to have straight sides and must be closed. 
  2. 2- Dimensional is a shape with no thickness.(aka 2D)
  3. 3-Dimensional is a shape with thickness. Any item in the real world is 3-Dimensional. (aka 3D)

Polyhedron
A polyhedron is a solid 3-D shape that has flat faces and straight edges.

Prisms can be cut into identical slices. They have straight edges only. A right Prism is a 3-D shape with two identical faces. All the rest of the sides are rectangles.

It has 8 vertices and 12 edges. Each face is made up of a rhombus. 

Fun Fact:
A rhombic prism is also called a parallelepiped..]]> 2018-03-20 14:06:01 UTC https://padlet.com/glengurtns_bdalton/io4b43jtqz70/wish/244023040 . glengurtns_bdalton https://padlet.com/glengurtns_bdalton/io4b43jtqz70/wish/244024831 When we have more than one tetrahedron they are called tetrahedra. 

The only shape in its net is a triangle.

another word for a tetrehedron is a prymid

Def: A prism is a solid three-dimensional shape
with two identical, parallel polygon bases. The name of the shape comes from the shape of it's base e.g. triangular prism

Fun Fact: When you shine light through a glass prism, it makes a mini rainbow.

Definition:
A prism is a 3-D shape that can be cut into identical slices ( e.g  a Toblerone). They have straight sides. It is also named after the shape of its base. 

Polyhedra: 
Definition:
A polyhedra is any 3-D shape that has flat faces and straight edge ( e.g a cube not a cone).

 A 3-Dimensional shape whose two ends are similar, equal, and parallel rectangular  shapes, and whose sides are parallelograms. 

Prisms can be cut into equal slices They only have straight sides. Examples of this are a Toblerone.  

Fun Fact:

If you shine a light through a prism you will create a rainbow. 

 Polyhedron:
Is a 3-d shape with flat faces and straight edges. Examples are cones and cubes etc.
