Solid geometrySolid Geometry is the geometry of three-dimensional space, the kind of space we live in ...
Three DimensionsIt is called three-dimensional, or 3D because there are three dimensions: width, depth and height.
Two main types of solidsPolyhedronNon-polyherdon
PolyhedraA polyhedron is a solid made of flat surfaces. Each surface is a polygon. Examples:Platonic solids  -tetrahedronCube (hexahedron)octahedrondodecahedronicosahedron
polyhedra2. Prisms - A prism has the same cross section all along its length !Square prismTriangular prismPentagonal prism
PyramidsPyramids - a solid shape or structure that has triangular sides that slope to meet in a point and a base that is often, but not necessarily, a square
Parts of pyramidA pyramid is made by connecting a base to an apex
Types of pyramidPyramid BaseTriangularPyramidSquarePyramid:
Non PolyhedraNon polyhedra- Some solids have curved surfaces, or a mix of curved and flat surfaces (so they aren't polyhedra). Examples:SphereCylinderTorusCone
sphereSphere -a three-dimensional closed surface consisting of all points that are a given distance from a centerProperties:It is perfectly symmetricalIt has no edges or verticesAll points on the surface are the same distance from the center
cylinderCylinder – an object or shape with straight sides and circular ends with equal size It has a flat base and a flat topThe base is the same as the top, and also in-betweenIt has one curved sideBecause it has a curved surface it is not a polyhedron.
Torus Torus- a  ring shaped surfaceIt can be made by revolving a small circle along a line made by another circle.It has no edges or verticesIt is not a polyhedron
Cone Cone- has a circular based and tapers to a point at the top or has a circular top and tapers to a point at the bottom.It has a flat baseIt has one curved sideBecause it has a curved surface it is not a polyhedron.
