most polyhedrans have no special name, and most of those that do are defined by special features such as parallel edges or congruent faces, so they would not apply to the kind of general situation you are asking about. For example, if a prism has this number of faces, edges, and vertices, and you stretch the bottom, you can change it first to a frustum of a pyramid, and then to a nameless distorted prism, without changing the fact that it fits your description! But you can look for _a_ familiar polyhedron that fits, rather than a name that applies to _every_ such polyhedron. To do that, you can start by looking for properties of familiar polyhedra in terms of their faces, vertices, and edges. For example, suppose you have a prism whose base is an n-gon. There are n lateral faces and 2 top and bottom faces; n vertices each on the top and bottom; and n edges each on the top, bottom, and sides. So you have F = n + 2 V = 2n E = 3n Do the same for several other kinds of shapes (pyramids, pe
