                  Solids are not flat like plane figures. They are 3-dimensional shapes/figures. Solid shapes
                  have length, breadth (or width) and depth (or height). A solid occupies a fixed amount

                  of space. Let us learn about the terms used in the understanding of solid shapes before
                  explaining the solid shapes.
                  plane and curved Surface

                  The part of an object which we see, touch and feel is known as the Surface. The Surface
                  can be plane (or flat) or curved.

                   plane surface.                     curved surface.                    plane and curved surface.

                  Faces, edges and Vertices of a Solid

                  Face: The Surface of a solid shape is called its face. The face of a solid could be plane or curved.

                  edge: The line where two faces meet is called an edge. The edge of a solid could be
                  straight or curved.                                                                                 Vertex

                  Vertex: The point where edges meet is called a corner or vertex.                                    Edge
