Solid GeometrySolid Geometry

Three-dimensional figures, or solids, can be made up of flat or curved surfaces. Each flat surface is called a face. An edge is the segment that is the

intersection of two faces. A vertex is the point that is the intersection of three or more faces.

A net is a diagram of the surfaces of a three-dimensional figure that can be folded to form

the three-dimensional figure. To identify a three-dimensional figure from a net, look at the

number of faces and the shape of each face.
