Learn Class 8 Math - Visualising Solid Shapes

Solids have a hard and fast form and occupy a space. A shape is made from polygonal regions referred to as its faces.

Two Dimensional Object

A form with the handiest dimensions (duration and width) and no thickness is known as a -dimensional form. Squares, Circles, Triangles, and so on are -dimensional objects. Also regarded as “2D”.

Three Dimensional Objects - Solids

Shapes that may be measured in three instructions are referred to as third-dimensional shapes. These shapes also are referred to as strong shapes. Their dimensions are length, width, and height (or intensity or thickness).

Solids and Their Classification

• Hexagon - In geometry, the hexagon is a polygon with 6 facets. The Sum of all inside angles is the same as 720°. If all of the facets of the hexagon are the same, then it's far known as an ordinary hexagon, then every indoors perspective measures 120°.
• Non-Polyhedrons - Solids with curved faces are known as Non-polyhedrons. They also may be defined as solids with facets that aren't polygons. Example: Sphere, Cylinder, Cone, etc.
• Prism - A prism is a solid whose aspect faces are parallelograms and whose ends (or bases) are congruent parallel polygons.
