Course modified date: 17 Jun 2022
Learn about 3D shapes, specifically identifying and describing different 2D shapes. This course is ideal for beginners.
Introduction
In this session we will be learning about 3-dimensional shapes, also called 3D shapes.A dimension is a measurement in one direction.
The number of dimensions is how many values are needed to locate points on a shape.
For example:
· A point has no dimensions, only position
· A line has 1 dimension
· A square has 2 dimensions
· A cube has 3 dimensions
You will learn
- Distinguish between polyhedron and non-polyhedron solids
- Identify platonic solids, prisms and pyramids
- Describe the characteristics of 2D shapes in terms of faces, edges and vertices
