Question 936056: This is a question I want to understand. This is a question from geometry.

1. Explain the relationship between the net of an object and the surface area of the object?
I would appreciate your help toward me.
Thank you for our time and effort.

A net is a two-dimensional drawing of a three-dimensional figure. By drawing a net, you are able to see the shapes and dimensions of each of the object’s faces.
Or, we can define it as a flat figure that can be folded to form a closed, three- dimensional object like cube or other object. This type of object is called a geometric solid.
we use nets to investigate solids:

-how many faces does this figure contain,
-how to calculate the area of each face
- then add the area of the faces together to determine the total surface area of the object
-we also use the net’s measurements to find the volume of the solid
For a net to form a three-dimensional object, certain lengths have to match. For example, in the nets for cubes, the side lengths of all the squares must be the same.
