Thanks for another great video! Just wondering - would a sphere be called a prism since it's a three dimensional shape? I've never said that but maybe that's the correct term?😅
Hi Katherine, great question! A sphere is a three dimensional shape, but it has a single rounded surface with no edges, no faces, and no vertex. It would not be considered a prism because it does not have two identical bases that are connected by lateral faces. A sphere is just a one-off three dimensional shape. Hope this helps!
