How many faces, vertical, edges does a triangle have? 3

Since the shape is a triangle, the base is a triangle. Since the shape is a paradigm, there are 2 parallel triangles. Each triangle has 3 angles. This is the only peak of the paradigm. Therefore, V = 6. There are 3 sides to form each triangle and 3 sides to join 2 bases (sides turn into reccles). So the number of edges is 9. The name Parzam indicates that if there are many sides then the triangle will have 3 sides or sides. Because it is a paradigm, it tells us that there are 2 bases. So the total number of faces is 5. There is also a formula that lists these 3 descriptors in each 3D format. V + F = E + 2, for example, helps. I now
