3D Figures Overview

3D Figures Overview

• 3D figures have depth, width, and height, distinguishing them from 2D shapes.

Rectangular Pyramid

• A three-dimensional shape with a rectangular base and four triangular faces converging at a single vertex (apex).

Cone

• A solid figure with a circular base that narrows to a single point (apex). It has a curved surface and one flat surface.

Triangular Prism

• Comprised of two parallel triangular bases and three rectangular lateral faces. It maintains a uniform cross-section along its length.

Hexagonal Pyramid

• Features a hexagonal base with six triangular faces meeting at a single apex. It is symmetrical and has a uniform shape.

Cylinder

• A 3D shape with two parallel circular bases connected by a curved surface. The sides are perpendicular to the bases, creating a uniform structure.

Rectangular Prism

• Defined by six rectangular faces, with opposite faces being congruent. It encompasses a length, width, and height.

Trapezoidal Prism

• Made of two parallel trapezoidal bases connected by four rectangular lateral faces. It has a uniform cross-section but varies in width along its length.

Square Pyramid

• Consists of a square base and four triangular faces that meet at a common vertex. It exhibits a uniform shape and is a type of pyramid.

Pentagonal Prism

• Contains two parallel pentagonal bases with five rectangular lateral faces. The shape is consistent along its length.

Triangular Pyramid

• Formed by a triangular base and three triangular faces converging at a point (apex). It is also known as a tetrahedron.

Sphere

• A perfectly symmetrical 3D figure where every point on the surface is equidistant from the center. It has no edges or vertices.
