List of some common 3D Shapes

3D Cubes

Cubes are pretty much like squares but with a 3-dimensional shape. All faces on a cube are square and equal to one another. A Cube has 6 Square Faces, 12 Edges and 8 Vertices

3D Cylinders

A cylinder has 3 faces in total. 2 circles are located at the top and bottom of the Cylinder and the final circle is the circular face of the cylinder. The cylinder also contains 2 circular edges and 2 vertices.

3D Spheres

A sphere contains 1 face, 0 edges and 0 vertices.

3D Cones

A cone contains 1 edge. This edge surrounds the bottom surface of the cone which is a full circle.
Additionally 2 faces which are 1 on the bottom of the cone and the other one that wraps around the cone. And finally the cone has 1 vertex which is the tip of the cone at the top.
A Cone has 2 Faces, 1 Edges and 1 Vertex

3D Pyramids

A 4 sided pyramid or square pyramid contains 8 edges, 5 faces and 5 vertices.

3D Cuboids

A cuboid which is rectangular in shape contains 6 faces in rectangle shape, 12 edges and 8 vertices.

3D Triangular prism

A triangular prism has 5 faces, 9 edges and 6 vertices.

3D Hemisphere

A hemisphere is half of a sphere and contains 1 edge. ( one circular edge ) and 1 face. It contains no vertice.
