Let's solve each question one by one based on the
nets of 3D shapes shown in the image.
---
Question 1:
Net: A cross-shaped arrangement of six squares (like a plus sign with squares extending from each side).
- This is a classic
net of a cube.
- All faces are squares, and there are six of them — exactly what a cube has.
✔ Answer: D. Cube
---
Question 2:
Net: A series of rectangles arranged in a zigzag or "staircase" pattern, forming a long strip with some parts sticking out.
- It has
6 rectangular faces, and when folded, it forms a box-like shape.
- The base and top are rectangles, and the sides are rectangles too — this matches a
rectangular prism.
✔ Answer: C. Rectangular Prism
> Note: This net is not a cube because all faces aren't necessarily equal — they are rectangles, possibly different sizes.
---
Question 3:
Net: A central square with four triangles attached to each side.
- The base is a square.
- Four triangular faces meet at a common point above the base.
- This is the net of a
square pyramid.
✔ Answer: C. Square Pyramid
---
Question 4:
Net: A large triangle with three smaller triangles attached to each side.
- The base is a triangle.
- Three triangular faces meet at a single apex.
- This is the net of a
triangular pyramid (also called a
tetrahedron).
✔ Answer: B. Triangular Pyramid
> Note: A triangular pyramid has 4 triangular faces — which matches this net.

✔ Final Answers:
1.
D. Cube
2.
C. Rectangular Prism
3.
C. Square Pyramid
4.
B. Triangular Pyramid
