2. (b) _____________________
3. (c) _____________________

To determine

To identify: The given solid figure.

Answer to Problem 1P

The given solid figure is a $\underset{\_}{\text{cube}}$.

Explanation of Solution

From the given figure, observe that the given solid object has 6 equal sized square faces with three meeting at each vertex.

It is known that. a cube is a three dimensional object with 6 identical square faces with three edges meeting at each vertex.

Therefore, the given solid figure is a $\underset{\_}{\text{cube}}$.

To determine

To identify: The given solid figure.

Answer to Problem 1P

The given solid figure is a $\underset{\_}{\text{rectangular prism}}$.

Explanation of Solution

From the given figure, observe that the given solid object has 2 identical ends and 6 faces that are rectangles.

It is known that. a prism is a solid object with 2 identical ends and flat sides and a rectangular prism is a solid object with 6 faces are rectangles.

Therefore, the given solid figure is a $\underset{\_}{\text{rectangular prism}}$.

To determine

To identify: The given solid figure.

Answer to Problem 1P

The given solid figure is a $\underset{\_}{\text{frustum of a cone}}$.

Explanation of Solution

It is known that the frustum of a cone is formed from a right circular cone by cutting of the tip of the cone in such a way that the cut is perpendicular to the height and forms the lower base and the upper base are circular and parallel.

From the given figure, observe that the given solid object is a cone and has an upper and a lower circular base with the upper base is parallel.

Therefore, the given solid figure is a $\underset{\_}{\text{frustum of a cone}}$.
