Aim: How do we idnetify solids?

Solid- 3- dimensional figures with width, depth and height.

All solids have volume and surface area.
There are two types of solids:
Polyhedra- having all flat surfaces.
Non- Polyhedra- if any surface is not flat.

All solids fall under these two categories.

Figures that would be considered polyhedras are; cubes, pyramids and prisms
Figures that fall under the category of non-polyhedras are figures like; cylinders or spheres.
