VIDEO: 3D Geometry Animation: Antiprisms 2 | VIDEO: 3D Geometry Animation: Antiprism Folding Out into Two Pyramids
This is part of a series of video animations of three-dimensional figures. These animations show different views of these figures: top, side, and bottom. Many of these figures are a standard part of the geometry curriculum and being able to recognize them is important. — CLICK THE PREVIEW BUTTON TO SEE THE VIDEO ANIMATION —Study these animations to learn the basic properties of these 3D figures. In particular, make a note of their sides, edges, and vertices. Look for any symmetries they have. Look for polygon shapes that are familiar. Finally, think of real-world examples that use these figures. Below we also include information about Platonic solids and 2D nets of these 3D figures. To get a better understanding of these 3D figures, study these basic forms. |
