        10. In the given figure, name the different polygons labelled as
                                                                                                                                   (iii) VERTICES Three edges of a cuboid meet at a point, called a vertex.

        CUBOID, CUBE, CYLINDER, SPHERE, CONE, PRISM AND PYRAMID
        IDEA OF SPACE When we look at something empty, like a box, room or bowl, it has space. We can keep things
        in that space. A park has space for us to play.                                                                            EXAMPLES Ice cubes, sugar cubes, dice, etc., are all examples of a cube.
        SOLID An object that has a fixed shape and size is called a solid. A solid occupies a fixed amount of space.               Clearly, a cube has 6 square faces, 12 edges and 8 vertices.
        Solids occur in different shapes.
        These shapes are known as three-dimensional shapes. The various types of these shapes are shown below.

                                                                                                                                   a measuring jar, a gas cylinder, a circular powder ttn, etc., are in the shape of a cylinder.
