Question

question 5 of 10 which of the following have at least two congruent parallel bases? check all that apply. a. pyramid b. cube c. none of these d. prism e. cylinder f. cone

Explanation:

Step1: Recall 3 - D shape properties

A pyramid has one base and triangular faces that meet at a vertex, so it doesn't have two congruent parallel bases.

Step2: Analyze cube

A cube is a type of prism. It has 6 square faces, and any two opposite faces are congruent and parallel. So it has at least two congruent parallel bases.

Step3: Analyze prism

By definition, a prism has two congruent parallel bases and rectangular (or parallelogram - shaped in general) lateral faces.

Step4: Analyze cylinder

A cylinder has two congruent circular parallel bases and a curved lateral surface.

Step5: Analyze cone

A cone has one circular base and a curved surface that tapers to a point, so it doesn't have two congruent parallel bases.

Answer:

B. Cube, D. Prism, E. Cylinder
