Chapter 12 Flashcards
1
Q
Prism
A
A polyhedron that has two parallel, congruent faces called bases. The other faces, called lateral faces, are parallelograms and are formed by connecting corresponding vertices of the bases (Prisms are always classified by their bases.)
2
Q
Right Prism
A
Prisms where each lateral edge is perpendicular to both bases.
3
Q
Circular Cylinder
A
A solid with congruent circular bases that lie in parallel planes.
4
Q
RIght cylinders
A
Cylinder where the segment joining the centers of its bases is perpendicular to its bases.
5
Q
Surface Area of a Right Prism
A
The surface area, S, of a right prism is S= 2B+Ph
