3-D Model of Octahedron
Product Code : JA-MLK-4495
The 3-D Model of Octahedron (SKU JA-MLK-4495) is a geometrical model of a solid with eight equal triangular faces, used to teach polyhedra in school maths. This octahedron 3D model lets students count its faces, edges and vertices, see how it relates to two square-based pyramids joined at their bases, and compare it with the tetrahedron and other solids.
Specifications
The product data describes the model as an octahedron with eight equal triangular faces; that is the only specification given, so material, colour and edge length are confirmed on the quotation, and buyers can state any preferred size when they send an enquiry.

Applications of the octahedron 3D model
The model is used to show a regular solid with eight faces in lessons on polyhedra, where students count 8 faces, 6 vertices and 12 edges, confirm Euler's formula and relate the octahedron to a pair of square-based pyramids placed base to base.
