Mathematics Cambridge Grade 2

3D SHAPES
are solid shapes. They have 3 dimensions
- length, width and height.

3D shapes have faces, edges and vertices.
 Faces
A face is a flat surface.
Edges Vertices
 Faces
A face is a flat surface.
 Edges
An edge is where two faces meet.
 Vertices / corners
A vertex is a corner where edges meet. The plural is vertices.
