Mathematics Question on Nets For Building 3-D Shapes
Give (i) an oblique sketch and (ii) an isometric sketch for each of the following:
(a) A cuboid of dimensions 5 cm, 3 cm and 2 cm. (Is your sketch unique?)
(b) A cube with an edge 4 cm long.
An isometric sheet is attached at the end of the book. You could try to make on it some cubes or cuboids of dimensions specified by your friend.
Answer
The sketch for the cuboid is not unique. The cuboid can also be drawn by taking the length as 3 cm or 2 cm. This will lead to a different view of the same cuboid.
