Question

The paper as shown in the figure is folded to make a cube where each square corresponds to a particular face of the cube. Which one of the following options correctly represents the cube? Note: The figures shown are representative.

• A. Cube with a black dot on the top and a triangle on the side
• B. Cube with a triangle on the side and another triangle on the adjacent face
• C. Cube with a triangle on one side and another face without clear markings
• D. Cube with a rotated triangle on the top and a dot on the side

Hint:

When solving cube folding problems, visualize how adjacent faces align and overlap. Identifying shared edges helps in determining correct orientations.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The given figure represents a net of a cube. When folded, each marked square will become a face of the cube.

• Observing the net, we see that the black dot, open circle, triangle, and filled triangle will be distributed across different faces.
• When folded, the black dot should appear on the top face, and the triangle should be on one of the vertical side faces.

Among the given options, option (A) correctly represents this arrangement.

Thus, the correct answer is (A).
