An Overview of Composite Solids

A detailed tutorial on what a composite solid is. Step by step tutorial including several examples of composite solids for reference.

A composite solid is exactly the same as a composite figure, only it is in 3D instead of in 2D. It is any kind of polyhedron (like a prism or a pyramid) that can be split into two or more of the basic types of polyhedrons in order to solve for the volume of the figure. Composite solids are very rare, and there are no regular types of solids that would be considered a composite solid.
