A rectangular prism has six faces. Each face of a rectangular prism is a rectangle, and there are six rectangles that make up the six faces of the prism.

The given statement is true because the triangles in the image are congruent. Congruent triangles have the same shape and size, meaning that all corresponding sides and angles are equal. Since the image does not provide any specific information about the triangles, we can assume that they are congruent based on the given statement.

The statement is asking if all of the objects below are pyramids. Since the answer is "True," it implies that all of the objects mentioned in the context are indeed pyramids.

The statement "The hexagons in this image are congruent" is true. Congruent hexagons have the same shape and size. In the given image, all the hexagons have the same number of sides and angles, and their corresponding sides are equal in length. Therefore, they are congruent to each other.

The best name for object B is a hexagonal pyramid because it has a base with six sides, which are in the shape of a hexagon. The term "hexagonal" refers to the number of sides on the base, while "pyramid" describes the overall shape of the object, which has a pointed top and triangular faces that meet at a central point.

A rectangular prism is a three-dimensional shape that has six faces, and each face of the prism has four vertices. Since a rectangular prism has six faces, each with four vertices, the total number of vertices is 6 times 4, which equals 24. However, we need to remember that the question specifically mentions that cubes are also rectangular prisms. A cube is a special type of rectangular prism where all sides are equal in length. A cube has six faces, each with four vertices. Therefore, the correct answer is 8 vertices.

A cube has 8 vertices. Each vertex is a point where three edges meet. If we imagine a cube, we can see that there are 8 corners where three edges intersect, giving us a total of 8 vertices.

A rectangular prism has 8 vertices. Each vertex is formed by the intersection of three edges. In a rectangular prism, there are three pairs of parallel edges, and each pair has two vertices at each end. Therefore, each pair contributes 2 vertices, resulting in a total of 6 vertices from the parallel edges. Additionally, there are two more vertices formed by the remaining edges, giving a total of 8 vertices.

The given statement is false because the object shown below does not have 4 congruent sides. In order for an object to be a square, all four sides must be of equal length. Since we cannot determine the lengths of the sides from the given information, we cannot conclude that the object is a square. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

A regular polygon is a polygon with congruent sides and congruent angles. From the options provided, all the letters except G represent regular polygons. Therefore, G is the only option that is NOT a regular polygon.

The object shown in the question has five sides, which makes it a pentagon. A pentagon is a polygon with five straight sides and five angles. It is the best name for the object because it accurately describes its shape. A hexagon has six sides, a quadrilateral has four sides, and a heptagon has seven sides, which do not match the object in the question.

A pentagonal pyramid is a solid shape with a pentagonal base and five triangular faces that meet at a single point called the apex. In the given question, it is not clear whether the pentagonal pyramid is being referred to in 2D or 3D. However, in either case, the correct answer would be 6 as there are six faces in total - five triangular faces that form the sides of the pyramid and one pentagonal face that forms the base.

A pentagonal pyramid is a three-dimensional figure with a pentagonal base and five triangular faces that meet at a single point called the apex. The question asks for the number of vertices in the pentagonal pyramid shown below. By counting the number of corners or points where the edges of the pyramid meet, we can determine the number of vertices. In this case, there are six corners or vertices, so the correct answer is 6.

A "corner" in geometry is commonly referred to as a vertex. A vertex is a point where two or more lines or edges meet, forming an angle. It is the point of intersection in a shape or figure, such as a triangle or a polygon. Therefore, the correct answer is vertex.

A polyhedron is a geometric solid that is made out of polygons. Unlike a circle or a sphere, which are curved shapes, a polyhedron is made up of flat surfaces called polygons. A cube is a specific type of polyhedron that has six square faces. Therefore, the correct answer is polyhedron.

The statement "The pentagons in this image are congruent" is false because the image does not provide any information or evidence to support the claim that the pentagons are congruent. Without any given measurements or angles, it is impossible to determine if the pentagons in the image are congruent or not. Therefore, the correct answer is false.

A hexagonal prism has 2 hexagonal faces and 6 rectangular faces, making a total of 8 faces.

A hexagonal prism is a three-dimensional shape with two parallel hexagonal faces connected by rectangular faces. Each hexagonal face has 6 vertices, and there are 2 hexagonal faces, so the total number of vertices is 6 + 6 = 12.

The best name for the two objects shown below is trapezoids. This is because trapezoids are quadrilaterals with one pair of parallel sides, which matches the shape of the objects in the image. Squares have equal sides and right angles, which the objects do not have. Parallelograms have opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length, which is not the case for the objects. Rhombuses have equal sides, but their opposite angles are not equal, unlike the objects. Therefore, trapezoids is the most appropriate name for the objects.

A regular polygon is a polygon that has congruent sides and congruent angles. In the given options, only option C is a regular polygon because all its sides are congruent and all its angles are congruent. Option A, B, and D do not have congruent sides or congruent angles, so they are not regular polygons.

The 3D net provided in the question consists of two congruent triangular faces at the top and bottom, connected by three rectangular faces on the sides. When folded along the edges, these rectangular faces will come together to form the lateral faces of a prism, while the triangular faces will become the bases. Therefore, the correct answer is a triangular prism.

By definition, every square is rhombus because squares MUST have 4 congruent sides. Rectangles and parallelograms CAN also be rhombii if they have 4 congruents sides.

The statement "The squares in this image are congruent" is false because the image does not provide any information about the squares. Without any specific measurements or characteristics mentioned, it is not possible to determine if the squares in the image are congruent or not. Therefore, the answer is false.

A triangular prism is a three-dimensional shape that has two triangular bases and three rectangular faces. Each triangular base has three edges, and the three rectangular faces have six edges. Therefore, a triangular prism has a total of 9 edges. The triangular prism also has six vertices, where the edges meet. The five faces consist of the two triangular bases and the three rectangular faces.

A cube is a three-dimensional shape with six square faces. Each face of the cube is connected to four edges, and there are six faces in total. Therefore, each face contributes four edges, resulting in a total of 24 edges. However, each edge is shared by two faces, so we need to divide the total number of edges by 2 to avoid counting them twice. Hence, a cube has 12 edges.

A polyhedron is a three-dimensional geometric figure with flat faces, straight edges, and sharp corners or vertices. Since all of the objects mentioned in the question are polyhedrons, the answer is true.

A pentagonal pyramid has a pentagonal base and five triangular faces. Each triangular face shares an edge with the pentagonal base, resulting in five edges. Additionally, each triangular face shares an edge with another triangular face, resulting in five more edges. Therefore, the pentagonal pyramid shown below has a total of 10 edges.

A hexagonal prism has 6 rectangular faces and 2 hexagonal faces. Each rectangular face has 4 edges, and each hexagonal face has 6 edges. Therefore, the total number of edges in a hexagonal prism is 6 * 4 + 2 * 6 = 24 + 12 = 36. However, since each edge is shared by two faces, we need to divide the total by 2 to get the actual number of unique edges. Therefore, the hexagonal prism has 36 / 2 = 18 edges.
