3. Solid Shapes
A solid shape is a shape which has a defined
length, breadth and width. It is also known as
a 3-Dimensional or 3-D shape. An easy way to
think of a 3D shape is any shape or object that
takes up air space.
They have 3 main components-
(1) Face
(2) Edge
(3)Vertex

4. Cube
Faces: 6
Edges: 12
Vertices: 8
2D equivalent: Square
Examples: Dice, ice cube, Rubik’s cube

A Square

5. Cuboid
Face: 6
Edges: 12
Vertices: 8
2D equivalent: Rectangle
Examples: Eraser, doors, books

6. Sphere
Faces: 1
Edges: 0
Vertices: 0
2D equivalent: Circle
Examples: Earth, football, marbles

7. Cone
Faces: 2
Edges: 1
Vertices: 1
2D equivalent: Triangle (approx.)
Examples: Ice cream & road cones,
party hats

8. Cylinder
Faces: 3
Edges: 2
Vertices: 0
2D equivalent: Circle (approx.)
Examples: Dry cells, watering cans, mugs

9. Pyramid
Faces: 5 or 4
Edges: 8 or 7
Vertices: 5 or 4
2D equivalent: Triangle (approx.)
Examples: Giza pyramids, conundrum,
paperweights
A Square

10. Prism
Faces: 5
Edges: 9
Vertices: 6
2D equivalent: Rectangle
Examples: Rooftop, ‘Toblerone’, cheese

11. View of an Object from
Varying Points
Any 3D object can look differently from
varying point and so can be drawn from
different perspectives. A solid can have
3views, these are:
1. Top view
2. Side view
3. Front view

12. Mapping Areas Around
UsWhat is a Map?
A map is a 2D drawing made according to a
specific scale. It depicts the location of an
object with respect to its surroundings.
While making maps, one must keep the
following things in mind:
~Use certain symbols to represent specific
places; these are also known the legend.
~Maintain a proper scale
