Representing Three-Dimensional Figures with Nets

This lesson covers the representation of three-dimensional figures using nets. It begins with an explanation of dimensions, providing examples of one-dimensional and two-dimensional figures. The core lesson defines a net as a two-dimensional pattern that can be folded into a three-dimensional figure. The video explores different nets for prisms and cylinders, demonstrating how to match nets to their corresponding 3D figures by analyzing their faces and bases.

Describe the process of determining the appropriate net for a given three-dimensional figure.

What characteristics should you look for when matching a net to a cylinder?
