11-1 Space Figures and Cross Sections
Polyhedron: a space figure, or three-dimensional figure, whose surfaces are polygons Vertex Edge Face: the flat surface of a figure Edge: Formed by the intersection of two faces Faces Vertex: the point where three or more edges intersect
Problem 1: Identifying Vertices, Edges, and Faces How many vertices, edges, and faces are in the polyhedron? List them.
Eulers Formula ? + ? = ? + 2 F = faces V = vertices E = Edges
Problem 2: Using Eulers Formula For each polyhedron, use Euler s Formula to find the missing number
For each polyhedron, use Eulers Formula to find the missing number
Problem 4: Describing a Cross Section Cross Section: the intersection of a solid and a plane (a thin slice of the solid) What is the cross section formed by the plane and the solid below?
What is the cross section formed by a horizontal plane? What is the cross section formed by a vertical plane?
Problem 5: Drawing a Cross Section Draw a cross section formed by a vertical plane intersecting the front face and right face of the cube. What shape is the cross section?
Draw a cross section formed by a horizontal plane intersecting left and right faces of the cube. What shape is the cross section?
