Identify the face, edge, and vertex of the triangular prism. Enter 1 for the face, 2 for the edge, and 3 for the vertex.
An illustration shows a triangular prism. Three arrows point to the three parts of the prism. There are no labels. One arrow points to the line forming the boundary of the prism. The second arrow points to a flat rectangular area, and the third arrow points to one of the junctions of three boundary lines of the prism. The sides in the front and that are visible are drawn with solid lines and the sides in the back that are not visible are drawn using dashed lines.
1 - Face
2 - Edge
3 - Vertex
which is the face edge and the vertex
In a triangular prism, the faces are the two triangular bases and three rectangular faces. The edges are the line segments connecting the vertices, and the vertices are the points where the edges meet.
So, in a triangular prism:
- The faces are the two triangular bases and three rectangular faces.
- The edges are the line segments connecting the vertices.
- The vertices are the points where the edges meet.
In the illustration you described:
- The arrow pointing to the line forming the boundary of the prism is likely pointing to an edge.
- The arrow pointing to the flat rectangular area is likely pointing to a face.
- The arrow pointing to the junction of three boundary lines of the prism is likely pointing to a vertex.
wait so which order is it in from the face to the vertex
From face to vertex in a triangular prism, the order should be:
1. Face
2. Edge
3. Vertex
