<h2>Counting Faces, Vertices and Edges</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>When we count the number of faces (the flat surfaces), vertices (corner points), and edges of a polyhedron we discover an interesting thing:</p>
|
||
<p class="def larger" align="center">The number of <b>faces</b><br>
|
||
<i>plus</i> the number of <b>vertices</b><br>
|
||
<i>minus</i> the number of <b>edges</b> equals <b>2</b></p>
|
||
<p>This can be written neatly as a little equation:</p>
|
||
|
||
<h3 align="center">F + V − E = 2</h3>
|
||
<p>It is known as <a href="eulers-formula.html">Euler's Formula</a> (or the "Polyhedral Formula") and is very useful to make sure we have counted correctly!</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">
|
||
<p style="float:right; margin: 0 0 5px 10px;"><img src="images/cube.svg" alt="cube" height="139" width="138"></p>
|
||
|
||
<h3>Example: Cube</h3>
|
||
<p>A cube has:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>6 Faces</li>
|
||
<li>8 Vertices (corner points)</li>
|
||
<li>12 Edges</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p class="large center">F + V − E = 6 + 8 − 12 = <b>2</b></p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">
|
||
<p style="float:right; margin: 0 0 5px 10px;"><img src="images/poly-tri-prism.svg" alt="triangular prism" height="70" width="105"><br></p>
|
||
|
||
<h3>Example: Triangular Prism</h3>
|
||
<p>This prism has:</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>5 Faces</li>
|
||
<li>6 Vertices (corner points)</li>
|
||
<li>9 Edges</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p class="large center">F + V − E = 5 + 6 − 9 = <b>2</b></p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p>But there are cases where it does <b>not</b> work! Read <a href="eulers-formula.html">Euler's Formula</a> for more.</p>
|
||
<p> </p>
|
||
<p style="float:left; margin: 0 10px 5px 0;"><img src="images/diagonal.svg" alt="diagonal" height="260" width="263"></p>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<h2>Diagonals</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>A diagonal is a straight line inside a shape that goes from one corner to another (but not an edge).</p>
|
||
<p>A polyhedron can have lots of diagonals. Can you think of one without diagonals?</p>
