SOME RELATED TERMS

1. FACE :
Every individual flat surface of a solid is termed as FACE.

A cube has
6 faces
2. VERTICES :
A point where two or more lines, curves or edges
meet is known as vertex (in plural: VERTICES).

The two line

segments AB and AC
have a common point
A which is the vertex
3. EDGES :
A line segment joining two vertices in a polygon,
polyhedron, or higher-dimensional polytope.

A cube has
12 edges
4. SURFACE AREA :
The space occupied by a 2-Dimensional flat surface is known as
SURFACE AREA

A cuboid has 6 faces

and the region
between the edges
of these faces is
their surface area
 Types of SURFACE AREA for a 3-Dimensional body

SURFACE AREA

Total surface area Curved surface area

The sum of the surface The total surface area

area of all the faces of a 3- excluding the area of base
D body is known as total and top is known as
surface area. curved surface area .
5. VOLUME :
The space occupied by a 3-Dimensional body, object or a closed
surface is termed as VOLUME.

Eg.
The amount of air
filled in a room gives
the volume of that
room.
