Explanation: Two different cylinders can be made from a rectangular sheet of paper, one is by rolling along its length and another by rolling along its breadth.
Question 16: Which of the following is a platonic solid?
A) Cuboid
B) Cube
C) Cone
D) Cylinder
Explanation: A cube is a platonic solid.
Question 17: Which of the following is not a polyhedron?
A) Cylinder
B) Cube
C) Cuboid
D) Hexagonal prism
Explanation: A cylinder is not a polyhedron.
Question 18: A polyhedron has 4 faces and 4 vertices. How many edges does it have?
A) 4
B) 5
C) 6
D) 8
Explanation: Here, F = 4, V = 4 and E = ?. For a polyhedron, Euler’s formula states that, F + V – E = 2 => 4 + 4 – E = 2 => 8 – E = 2 => E = 8 – 2 => E = 6.
Question 19: A polyhedron has 20 faces and 30 edges. How many vertices does it have?
A) 10
B) 12
C) 14
D) 16
Explanation: Here, F = 20, E = 30 and V = ?. For a polyhedron, Euler’s formula states that, F + V – E = 2 => 20 + V – 30 = 2 => V = 2 + 30 – 20 => V = 12.
Question 20: A polyhedron has 12 edges and 6 vertices. How many faces does it have?
A) 12
B) 10
C) 8
D) 6
Explanation: Here, E = 12, V = 6 and F = ?. For a polyhedron, Euler’s formula states that, F + V – E = 2 => F + 6 – 12 = 2 => F = 2 + 12 – 6 => F = 8.
