| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| face | a plane figure that serves as one side of a solid fiqure |
| volume | the number of cubic units it takes to fill a figure (length x width x height) |
| Cone | a 3-dimensional figure with one curved surface, one flat surface (usually circular), one curved edge, and one vertex |
| base of a solid figure | A plane figure. If the solid is a cylinder or prism, there are two bases that are parallel and congruent |
| pyramid | A polyhedron whose base is a polygon and whose other faces are triangles that share a common vertex |
| perpendicular | forming right angles |
| prism | A 3-dimensional figure that has two congruent and parallel faces that are polygons. The remaining faces are parallelograms. |
| surface area | The total area of the faces (including the bases) and curved surfaces of a solid figure |
| Parallel | Always the same distance apart |
| Cylinder | A 3-dimensional fiqure with two parallel and congruent circles as bases, one curve surface, two curved edges and no vertices |
