Visualize a square-based pyramid. There are four edges on the base and four more combined edges from the four triangles that make the sides. An octahedron has an upside-down pyramid pasted to the bottom. Since you've already counted the base, there's just four more edges from the combined four extra triangles, making a total of 12.
