In geometry, the snub cube, or snub cuboctahedron, is an Archimedean solid with faces: squares and equilateral triangles.
It has edges and vertices.
It is a polyhedron; that is, it has two distinct forms, which are mirror images (or "enantiomorphs") of each other.
You can get the answer by looking it up online, as the other tutors did -- or suggested that you do...
... or you can find the answer by doing some math and getting some problem-solving practice along the way.
The number of edges can be found as follows:
The number of edges of the 32 triangles is 96; the number of edges of the 6 squares is 24; the total number of edges of the polygonal faces is 120.
Each edge of the snub cube is where the edges of two polygons meet.
The number of edges on a snub cube is 120/2=60.
Then to find the number of vertices, use Euler's formula: E = V+F-2.
60 = V+38-2
V = 24.
ANSWER: The snub cube has 60 edges and 24 vertices.
