Question

question 7 of 10

a cylinder is a polyhedron with circular bases.

a. true

b. false

Explanation:

Analyze the definition of a polyhedron

A polyhedron is a three-dimensional solid bounded by flat polygonal faces.

Analyze the properties of a cylinder

A cylinder has curved lateral surfaces and circular bases, which are not polygons.

Evaluate the statement

Since a cylinder has curved surfaces and circular bases, it is not bounded entirely by polygons, so it is not a polyhedron.

Answer:

• A. True
• B. False (Correct answer)
