Geometric Properties of Three-Dimensional Shapes

Three-dimensional shapes:



(a)	Prism Two flat bases that are polygons which are congruent and parallel Flat rectangular shaped side Uniform cross section

(b)	Cylinder Two circular bases which are congruent and parallel One curved surface

(c)	Cone One circular base One apex One curved surface that merges the base and the apex

(d)	Pyramid One flat base that is polygon shaped The other sides are triangular shaped that meet at the apex

(e)	Sphere All points on the surface are equidistant from the centre of the sphere One curved surface
