Answer :

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



NCERT Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 15 Visualising Solid Shapes


Answer :

If one pair of opposite faces will have 1 and 4 on them, then their total does not come 7.
If we take 3 and 6 on the opposite faces of the die, then the total does not come 7.
Hence, this cannot be for a die.

Q. 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 are there in the net here? (Give two separate diagrams. If you like, you may use a squared sheet for easy manipulation.)
