Poll

What similarities do you notice between the length, width, and height of the prism, and the dimensions given in the net?

The sides have the same dimensions

The bottom and top have the same dimensions

The front and back have the same dimensions

The only ones that do not have 3 as a dimension are the front and the back

The parts of the net that would be opposite or parallel to each other, when wrapped around a rectangular prism, have the same dimensions

The rectangular prism has a length of 10 cm, a width of 6 cm, and a height of 8 cm.

We will learn how to draw and label a net to represent a rectangular prism.
