Question

State true or false.
A Cube is the 3-dimensional object or shape that can be formed from following net.

     

A. TRUE
B. FALSE

Answer 1

Hint: We prove this statement is true or false by checking if the length of sides and number of sides of a 3 dimensional cube equals the length of sides and number of sides in the figure.

Complete step-by-step answer:
We know a three dimensional cube can be drawn as
               

A net of a cube means how a three dimensional cube would look like if it was opened.
We know that a cube has six equal six equal square shaped faces.
To find the net we find the number of squares formed when we open up a cube.
The two squares on the top, bottom and the left side will be folded at right angles to form side faces of a cube, the square which is common will form the base of the cube and the two squares on right will be folded at right angles to each other which will form a side and the top of the cube.
Looking at the figure given in the diagram we see it has six equal squares which when folded will form a three dimensional cube.
Therefore, the statement given in the question is TRUE.

So, the correct answer is “Option A”.

Note: Students are likely to get confused with the diagram given in the question as two squares which are on the sides will form which face of the cube, so they can think of these two as side faces which will be folded each at right angles.
