- 1.A cube has all of its edges the same length. How many planes of symmetry does it have?
- 2.How many vertices does a square-based pyramid have?
- 3.A solid has 4 triangular faces, 4 vertices and 6 edges. What is the name of this solid?
- 4.A solid has one curved surface and two flat circular faces of equal size, one at each end. What is the name of this solid?
- 5.A solid has two parallel, congruent polygon faces joined by flat rectangles, and its cross-section is the same shape all the way along its length. Which solid is it?
- 6.How many edges does a cube have?
- 7.How many edges does a triangular prism have?
- 8.A solid has 5 faces, 9 edges and 6 vertices. Two of its faces are triangles and the other three are rectangles. Which solid is it?
- 9.How many vertices does a cylinder have?
- 10.A solid has 6 faces: one pentagon and five triangles that all meet at a single point above the pentagon. What is the name of this solid?
- 11.A tent is shaped like a triangular prism: two triangular end faces and three rectangular faces. One of the rectangular faces lies flat on the ground as the groundsheet. How many of the tent's faces are above the ground, not touching the ground?
- 12.A cylindrical tin has a curved surface, a flat circular base and a flat circular lid. A label is stuck around the curved surface only. How many of the tin's faces are NOT covered by the label?
- 13.How many faces does a cuboid have?
- 14.A hexagonal prism lies on a table. A flat cut is made straight across it, at right angles to its length (so the cut is parallel to the two identical end faces). What shape is the cross-section?
- 15.A solid has 5 faces: one square face and four triangular faces, which all meet at a single point above the square. What is the name of this solid?
