Top Block 1
Question: 1. Identify the nets which can be used to make cubes (cut out copies of the nets and try it):

Answer :
Cube’s nets are (ii), (iii), (iv) and (vi).
Question: 2. Dice are cubes with dots on each face. Opposite faces of a die always have a total of seven dots on them.

Mddle block 1

Answer :
Sol.

Question: 3. Can this be a net for a die? Explain your answer.

Answer :
No, this cannot be a net for a die.
Because one pair of opposite faces will have 1 and 4 on them and another pair of opposite faces will have 3 and 6 on them whose total is not equal to 7.
Question: 4. Here is an incomplete net for making a cube. Complete it in at least two different ways. Remember that a cube has six faces. How many faces are there in the net here? (Give two separate diagrams. If you like, you may use a squared sheet for easy manipulation.)

Answer :
There three faces are given:

Question: 5. Match the nets with appropriate solids:
Column A | Column B |
---|---|
1. ![]() | A. ![]() |
2. ![]() | B. ![]() |
3. ![]() | C. ![]() |
4. ![]() | D. ![]() |
Answer :
Solids Their nets
Column A | Column B |
---|---|
1. ![]() | B. ![]() |
2. ![]() | C. ![]() |
3. ![]() | D. ![]() |
4. ![]() | A. ![]() |
