Question

Look at the shapes given below and state which of these are polyhedra using Euler’s formula.

Sum

Solution

In the given figure, we have

Faces (F) = 1, Vertices (V) = 0 and Edges (E) = 1

On putting these values in Euler's formula, we get

F + V – E = 2

⇒ 1 + 0 – 1 = 2

⇒ 0 ≠ 2

Hence, these values do not satisfy the Euler's formula. So, it is not a polyhedra.
