Can this be a net for a die?
Explain you answer
The given net can be folded as follows.
It can be observed that the opposite faces of the dice so formed have 2 and 5, 1 and 4, 3 and 6 on them. The sum of the numbers on the opposite faces comes to 7, 5, 9 respectively. However, in case of a dice, the sum of the numbers on the opposite faces should be 7. Hence, this net is not of a dice.

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.

The dimensions of a cuboid are 5 cm, 3 cm and 2 cm. Draw three different isometric sketches of this cuboid.
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.
Make an oblique sketch for each one of the given isometric shapes:
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?)
