Prism<\/strong><br>A <strong>prism<\/strong> is a solid geometric figure with two identical ends (called bases) that are parallel and connected by rectangular faces. Examples: rectangular prism (box), triangular prism, hexagonal prism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>B. Triangle<\/strong><br>A <strong>triangle<\/strong> is a <strong>2D<\/strong> shape with three sides and three angles. It is <strong>not<\/strong> a 3D object, so this term would only apply if the figure is flat and triangular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>C. Polygon<\/strong><br>A <strong>polygon<\/strong> is a <strong>2D closed figure<\/strong> with straight sides. Examples include triangles, squares, pentagons. If the object is <strong>3D<\/strong>, it is <strong>not<\/strong> a polygon, but its faces might be polygons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>D. Polyhedron<\/strong><br>A <strong>polyhedron<\/strong> is a <strong>3D solid<\/strong> whose faces are all polygons. Examples: cubes, pyramids, prisms. If the object is 3D with flat faces, this is the correct term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>E. Pyramid<\/strong><br>A <strong>pyramid<\/strong> is a polyhedron with a polygonal base and triangular faces that meet at a point (apex). If the object has this structure, it is a pyramid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>F. Square<\/strong><br>A <strong>square<\/strong> is a <strong>2D shape<\/strong> with four equal sides and four right angles. If the object is 3D, a square might be one of its faces, but the object itself is not a square.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Example of Correct Application:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the object is a <strong>square pyramid<\/strong> (square base, four triangular sides):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2705 <strong>D.
