Math Problem Statement
Solution
To match each shape to its correct name, let's go through each shape one by one:
-
Shape A: This is a triangular-based pyramid (a tetrahedron). The base is a triangle, and all other faces are also triangles.
-
Shape B: This is another triangular-based pyramid. It has a triangular base and three triangular sides.
-
Shape C: This is a triangular prism. It has two triangular bases and three rectangular faces connecting them.
-
Shape D: This is a square-based pyramid. It has a square base and four triangular faces meeting at a single vertex.
-
Shape E: This is a cube. All faces are squares and of the same size.
Matching the names:
- A: Triangular-based pyramid
- B: Triangular-based pyramid
- C: Triangular prism
- D: Square-based pyramid
- E: Cube
