Objective: To Describe Properties of Solid Such As Perpendicular and
Face
Part of a shape that is flat.(Or curved) E.g. A cube has 6 of these.
Edge
The line where two faces meet. E.g. A cube has 12 of these.
Vertex (Vertices)
The place where three or more edges meet. This pyramid has 4 of these.
Parallel
These type of lines stay the same distance apart for their whole length. They do not need to be straight or the same length.
Perpendicular
A line that is drawn in a right angle to another line . In solid shapes edges could be at a right angle to one another. Faces could also be at right angles to one another.
Cube
A three-dimensional shape which has 6 square faces all the same size.
Some faces parallel Some edges parallel Some faces perpendicular Some edges perpendicular
Cuboid
A three-dimensional shape which has 6 rectangular faces.
Some faces parallel Some edges parallel Some faces perpendicular Some edges perpendicular
Sphere
A perfectly round three-dimensional shape, like a ball. It has only one curved face.
No parallel faces or edges No perpendicular faces or edges
Hemisphere
A three-dimensional shape that is half a sphere.
Cone
A three dimensional shape with a circle at its base and a pointed vertex.
Cylinder
A three-dimensional shape with circular ends of equal size.
Some faces parallel Some edges parallel Some faces perpendicular No edges perpendicular
Pyramid
A three-dimensional shape which has a polygon for its base and triangular faces which meet at one vertex.
E.g. Triangular pyramid Square pyramid Hexagonal pyramid Pentagonal pyramid
Prism
A three dimensional shape that has the same cross-section all along its length.

Polygons
Two-dimensional shapes that have sides made from straight lines. E.g. triangles squares hexagons
Quadrilaterals
Any two-dimensional shapes with four straight sides. E.g. square rhombus rectangle trapezium kite
Rectangle
A four sided twodimensional shape with two pairs of parallel sides that meet at right angles.
Kite
A two-dimensional shape with two shorter sides of equal length and two longer sides of equal length.
Rhombus
A two-dimensional four sided shape with opposite sides that are parallel and all the sides are the same length.
Trapezium
A two-dimensional shape with four sides.One pair of sides is parallel with one side longer than the other.
Pentagon
A two-dimensional shape with five straight sides and five angles.
Hexagon
A two-dimensional shape with 6 straight sides and 6 angles.
Octagon
A two-dimensional shape with 8 straight sides and 8 angles.
Circle
A round flat twodimensional shape.
Square
Two dimensional shape with 4 sides of the same length and 4 90 angles.
Triangle
Two-dimensional shape with three straight sides and three angles. Can you name 4 different kinds?
