Question

A table made out of cardboard is shown on the left. If dotted lines indicate folding, which of the option(s) is/are the unfolded view(s) of the table?

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D

Hint:

For unfolding/folding problems: \begin{itemize} \item Count faces and edges of the 3D object, \item Ensure all folds meet without overlap, \item Multiple unfolded views may exist. \end{itemize}

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A, C

Step 1: Observe the 3D table carefully. It consists of: \begin{itemize} \item One flat square top, \item Four identical legs, \item Each leg formed by folding a strip downward. \end{itemize} \bigskip Step 2: In the unfolded net: \begin{itemize} \item The tabletop must be a central square, \item Four leg flaps must extend from its edges, \item The legs must be symmetric in pairs. \end{itemize} \bigskip Step 3: Examine each option: \begin{itemize} \item A: Correct placement of tabletop and four leg flaps — valid. \item B: Incorrect leg orientation; cannot form the shown table — invalid. \item C: Alternate but valid unfolding that folds into the same table — valid. \item Option D: Missing correct adjacency for one leg — invalid. \end{itemize} \bigskip Final Answer: \[ \boxed{\text{A, C}} \] \bigskip
