☞ANSWER☜

3D shapes

  • Cube Cuboid
  • Sphere Square-based pyramid
  • Cylinder Triangular prism
  • Pentagonal pyramid Hexagonal prism

☞EXPLANATION☜

A solid of revolution is a three-dimensional figure obtained by rotating a two-dimensional figure (or curve) around a straight line (called the axis) that lies in the same plane. ... Since the triangle's interior is shaded, it creates the interior of the cone, creating a solid figure.

Three dimensional shapes are obtained by rotating the two dimensional shapes. When a circle is rotated we get sphere; when a triangle is rotated we get cone; when rectangle or square is rotated we get cylinder
