Sagot :

To match the given definitions to the correct geometric terms, let's explain each one and see how it fits with the words cylinder, pyramid, and prism.

1. Cylinder:
- Definition F: "a solid figure with two parallel, congruent circular bases."
- This definition describes a cylinder perfectly because a cylinder is characterized by having two parallel and congruent circular bases connected by a curved surface.
- So, the correct match for a cylinder is F.

2. Pyramid:
- Definition C: "a three-dimensional figure with a polygon base and triangle faces that meet at the top."
- This definition fits a pyramid because a pyramid has a base that is a polygon (e.g., triangle, square) and all other faces are triangles that converge to a single point at the top.
- So, the correct match for pyramid is C.

3. Prism:
- Definition E: "a three-dimensional solid with two parallel identical polygon bases and all other faces that are rectangles."
- This definition describes a prism, which has two parallel, identical bases (which can be any polygon) and the sides are typically rectangles.
- So, the correct match for prism is E.

Putting this all together, here is the completed table with the correct matches:

\begin{tabular}{|l|l|}
