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

उत्तर
In the given figure, we have
Faces (F) = 3, Vertices (V) = 0 and Edges (E) = 2
On putting these values in Euler’s formula, we get
F + V – E = 2
⇒ 3 + 0 – 2 = 2
⇒ 1 ≠ 2
Hence, these values do not satisfy the Euler’s formula. So, it is not a polyhedra.
