Question

NO LINKS!! Use the diagram below to answer the following questions.​

Answer 1

a) WS, ZV, YU

b) VU

c) ZW

d) WXY

e) None

f) TU, TV, UV, XY, XZ, YZ

g) SW, VX, VZ, WX, WZ, YZ

Explanation:

A prism is a polyhedron that has:

• Two bases that are congruent and parallel to each other.
• Lateral sides that are parallelograms and link the two bases.
• Height that is the distance between the two bases.

From inspection of the give diagram, the figure appears to be a quadrilateral prism with bases STUV and WXYZ.

Parallel line segments

• Parallel line segments lie on parallel lines.
• Parallel lines are lines on a plane that never meet and are the same distance apart.

a) Segments parallel to XT:

• WS, ZV, YU

b) Segments parallel to ZY:

• VU

c) Segments parallel to VS:

• ZW

Planes

• A plane is a flat, two-dimensional surface that extends into infinity.
• A plane can be named by the letters naming three non-collinear points in the plane.
• Parallel planes are planes that never intersect.

d) Planes parallel to plane STU:

• WXY

e) Planes parallel to plane UVZ:

• None

Skew lines

Skew lines are a pair of non-coplanar lines that:

• Do not intersect.
• Are not parallel to each other.

f) Segments skew to SW:

• TU, TV, UV, XY, XZ, YZ

g) Segments skew to UT:

• SW, VX, VZ, WX, WZ, YZ
