The Five Platonic Solids
A Platonic solid is a regular, convex polyhedron. It is constructed by congruent, regular polygonal faces with the same number of faces meeting at each vertex. In 3D geometry, exactly five of these exist.
Euler's Formula
For any Platonic solid (and all convex polyhedra), the relationship between Faces (F), Vertices (V), and Edges (E) always satisfies Euler's formula: F + V - E = 2.
