How many lateral edges are there in a triangular prism
hmm. wait. If lateral edges are the ones running the length of the prism, and not including the ones on the ends, then it would be 3.
its 3... lateral edges are only the edges that form the lateral sides
how many lateral edges are in a prsm
A triangular prism has three rectangular faces and two triangular faces. To determine the number of lateral edges in a triangular prism, count the number of edges that are not part of the top and bottom faces.
To do this, think about the shape of a triangular prism. It has three pairs of parallel edges connecting the top and bottom bases, and three additional edges connecting corresponding vertices of the top and bottom bases.
So, there are six lateral edges in a triangular prism.
the options are 6 3 9 and 12
i think its 9
