Above, we have discussed all the two-dimensional shapes. Here we will see the 3d shapes mentioned in geometry.
Three-dimensional shapes are determined by three major axes, i.e., x-axis, y-axis and z-axis. These are also called solids since they appear as solid structures. The common solids that are seen in everyday lives are:
- Sphere (A round shape)
- Cube (has 6 faces, 8 vertices, 12 edges and faces are in square shape)
- Cuboid (has 6 faces, 8 vertices, 12 edges and faces are in a rectangular shape)
- Cone (1 circular base, 1 vertex and a curved surface)
- Cylinder (two parallel circular bases and a curved surface)
