    Solid geometry is the study of three-dimensional space and shapes. It involves shapes with three dimensions - width, depth, and height. There are two main types of solids: polyhedra, which have flat faces like cubes, cuboids, prisms, and pyramids, and non-polyhedra, where at least one surface is not flat, such as spheres, cylinders, cones, and toruses. Solids have properties including volume, surface area, and the number of vertices, faces, and edges.

    Solid Geometry

    Solid Geometry is the geometry of three-dimensional space,


    the kind of space we live in ...

    Three Dimensions
    It is called threedimensional,
    or 3D because there are
    three dimensions : width,
    depth andheight.

    Simple Shapes
    Let us start with some of the simplest shapes:

    Common 3D Shapes

    Properties
    Solids have properties (special things about them), such as:

    volume (think of how much water it could hold)

    surface area (think of the area you would have to paint)

    how many vertices (corner points), faces and edges they have

    Polyhedra and Non-Polyhedra


    There are two main types of solids, "Polyhedra", and "Non-Polyhedra":

    Polyhedra :

    Cubes and
    Cuboids (Volume
    of a Cuboid)

    (they must
    have flat faces)

    Platonic Solids

    Prisms

    Pyramids

    NonPolyhedra:
    (if any surface
    is not flat)

    Polyhedron Models
    Vertices, Faces, and Edges
    Cone vs Sphere vs Cylinder
    Euler's Theorem

    Sphere

    Torus

    Cylinder

    Cone
