Let’s go through each 3D shape one by one and name it correctly.
First row:
- The first shape has a circular base and comes to a point at the top → that’s a
cone.
- The second shape is like a can — flat circles on top and bottom, straight sides → that’s a
cylinder.
- The third shape is perfectly round all around → that’s a
sphere.
Second row:
- The first shape has six square faces → that’s a
cube.
- The second shape has two triangular ends and three rectangular sides → that’s a
triangular prism.
- The third shape has a triangle for every face and meets at one point → that’s a
triangular pyramid (also called a tetrahedron).
Third row:
- The first shape is like a box with rectangles → that’s a
rectangular prism (or cuboid).
- The second shape has hexagons on top and bottom and rectangles on the sides → that’s a
hexagonal prism.
- The third shape has a square base and four triangles meeting at a point → that’s a
square pyramid.
Now let’s write them in order as they appear on the sheet:
Row 1: Cone, Cylinder, Sphere
Row 2: Cube, Triangular Prism, Triangular Pyramid
Row 3: Rectangular Prism, Hexagonal Prism, Square Pyramid
Final Answer:
Cone, Cylinder, Sphere, Cube, Triangular Prism, Triangular Pyramid, Rectangular Prism, Hexagonal Prism, Square Pyramid
