Let's solve this step by step. The task is to
identify each 3D shape and
circle the correct word that describes it.
We'll go through each shape one by one:
---
1)
-
Shape: A round, ball-like object.
-
Options: cone, sphere, cylinder, prism
-
Correct answer:
sphere
-
✔ Explanation: A sphere is perfectly round in all directions, like a ball.
---
2)
-
Shape: A pointed shape with a circular base and a single vertex (top point).
-
Options: cube, sphere, cone, pyramid
-
Correct answer:
cone
-
✔ Explanation: A cone has a circular base and tapers to a point. This matches the image.
---
3)
-
Shape: A triangular-based pyramid with four triangular faces.
-
Options: pyramid, cuboid, cylinder, prism
-
Correct answer:
pyramid
-
✔ Explanation: This is a
triangular pyramid, which is a type of pyramid.
---
4)
-
Shape: A box-like shape with six equal square faces.
-
Options: sphere, cone, pyramid, cube
-
Correct answer:
cube
-
✔ Explanation: All sides are equal squares → this is a
cube.
---
5)
-
Shape: A box-like shape with rectangular faces (not all sides equal), but straight edges and flat faces.
-
Options: pyramid, cuboid, prism, cylinder
-
Correct answer:
cuboid
-
✔ Explanation: A
cuboid is a 3D shape with six rectangular faces. It’s like a stretched cube.
> Note: "Prism" is also a possible general term, but since "cuboid" is listed and more specific, it's the best choice here.
---
6)
-
Shape: Another pyramid, but this one looks like a
triangular pyramid (same as #3).
-
Options: prism, cone, pyramid, sphere
-
Correct answer:
pyramid
-
✔ Explanation: Four triangular faces meeting at a point →
pyramid.
---
7)
-
Shape: A shape with two circular bases and a curved surface connecting them.
-
Options: sphere, prism, cone, cylinder
-
Correct answer:
cylinder
-
✔ Explanation: A
cylinder has two parallel circular bases and a curved side.
---
