Question

*PLEASE ANSWER* Which statement about the figure is true?

Answer 1

Answer: There are 8 edges and 5 verticles

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a square pyramid. The base is 1 face. The sides that are touching the base and touching at the point that the top is 4 faces altogether. 4+1=5 faces. You can also count the number of faces. (1 face is a square (the base) and the other 4 faces are the sides).

Ok vertices are the points. There are 5 points. Points are where edges touch. (4 vertices are touching the square, the last vertice is at the top of the pyramind)

There are 8 edges. Edges are the literal "edges". You can count. The square on the bottom has 4 edges. The edges touching the top point there are 4 edges. There are 8 edges in total. (4 edges are sides of the square, the other edges are pointing to the top of the pyramind)

The first choice is wrong because it does not have 5 faces.

The second one is correct, the figure has 5 vertices and 8 edges.

The third one is wrong because the figure doesn't have 8 vertices

The last one is wrong it does not have 4 faces.
