A cylinder in 3D has 3 faces.
Here's a breakdown:
- Two Circular Faces: These are the flat, circular ends of the cylinder.
- One Curved Face: This is the curved surface connecting the two circular faces. Imagine unrolling a can of soup; this surface would become a rectangle.
Therefore, the total number of faces is 2 (circular) + 1 (curved) = 3.
| Face Type | Number | Shape |
|---|---|---|
| Circular (Flat) | 2 | Circle |
| Curved | 1 | Rectangular |
A cylinder has no vertices (corners) and two edges (the circles where the curved surface meets the flat faces).
