Question:2 Dice are cubes with dots on each face. Opposite faces of a die always have a total of seven dots on them. Here are two nets to make dice (cubes); the numbers inserted in each square indicate the number of dots in that box.
Insert suitable numbers in the blanks, remembering that the number on the opposite faces should total to 7.
Answer:
The sum of the opposite sides of a dice =7
Question: 3 Can this be a net for a die? Explain your answer.
Answer:
NO,
This can not be a net for a die because the opposite faces of a die always have a total sum of 7.
Now, this case one pair is 4 opposite to 1
So, their sum is equal to 5 and not equal to 7
And also, the 2nd pair is 6 opposite to 3 .
So, their sum is equal to 9 and not equal to 7
Question: 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.)
Answer:
There are three faces in the given net. The two possibilities of forming nets are
Question:5 Match the nets with appropriate solids:
Answer:
Thsese are the correct matches

Question: 2 The dimensions of a cuboid are 5 cm, 3 cm and 2 cm. Draw three different isometric sketches of this cuboid.
Answer:
There are a total of 3 isometric sketches of the cuboid are possible with given dimensions of a cuboid
Question: 3 Three cubes each with 2 cm edge are placed side by side to form a cuboid. Sketch an oblique or isometric sketch of this cuboid.
Answer:
It is given that three cubes each with 2 cm edge are placed side by side to form a cuboid
So, the oblique sketch of the cuboid is given below
Question: 4 Make an oblique sketch for each one of the given isometric shapes:
Answer:
Oblique sketch for each one of the given isometric shapes is: -
Question: 5 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 isometric sketch of s cuboid of dimensions 5 cm, 3 cm and 2 cm. In a similar way, we can draw for the cube also

Question: Try to guess the number of cubes in the following arrangements (Fig 15.17).
Answer:
i) There are 4 columns and 2 rows in the first line.
So, the total number of cubes in the first line is
And there is total 3 such line.
Therefore, the total number of cubes are
ii) There are 3 columns and 1 row in the first line at the bottom.
So, the total number of cubes in the first line are
And there are total 2 such lines
So, the total number of cubes at the bottom are
Now, we can see that two cubes are placed on the second line
Therefore, the total number of cubes are
iii) There are 3 columns and 1 row in the first line at the bottom.
So, the total number of cubes in the first line are
And there are total 2 such lines
So, the total number of cubes at the bottom are
Now, we can see that two cubes are placed on the second line and one cube in the front of the first line
Therefore, the total number of cubes are
Question:1 Two dice are placed side by side as shown: Can you say what the total would be on the face opposite to
(a) 5 + 6 (b) 4 + 3
(Remember that in a die sum of numbers on opposite faces is 7)
Answer:
a ) Face opposite to 5 is 2 and opposite to 6 is 1
Therefore, there sum is equal to = 2 + 1 = 3
b ) Face opposite to 4 is 3 and opposite to 3 is 4
Therefore, there sum is equal to = 3 + 4 = 7
Question:2 Three cubes each with 2 cm edge are placed side by side to form a cuboid. Try to make an oblique sketch and say what could be its length, breadth and height.
Answer:
Oblique sketch of three cubes each with 2 cm edge placed side by side to each other to form a cuboid is
In this case
lenght = 2+2+2= 6cm
breath = 2 cm
height = 2cm
Two more cases are possible with
Height = 2+2+2= 6cm
breath = 2 cm
length = 2cm
And
breath = 2+2+2= 6cm
length = 2 cm
height = 2cm

Question: 1 What cross-sections do you get when you give a
(i) vertical cut (ii) horizontal cut
to the following solids?
(a) A brick (b) A round apple (c) A die (d) A circular pipe (e) An ice cream cone
Answer:
a ) A brick
i ) Vertical cut
ii ) The horizontal cut gives rectangular crossection
In both, the case crossection will be circular in shape approximately
both the cut will give a square shape
d ) A circular pipe
i ) A vertical cut will give a circular shape
ii ) The horizontal cut gives a rectangular shape
e ) An ice cream cone
i) The vertical cut gives a triangular shape
ii) The horizontal cut gives a circular shape

Question: 3 Examine if the following are true statements:
(i) The cube can cast a shadow in the shape of a rectangle.
(ii) The cube can cast a shadow in the shape of a hexagon.
Answer:
A cube can cast shadow only in the shape of a square.
