GCSE Maths Practice: 3d-shapes-and-nets

Question 1 of 10

Count the edges of a cuboid.

›

\( \begin{array}{l}\text{How many edges does a cuboid have?}\end{array} \)

Choose one option:

Visualize the cuboid and count carefully.

A cuboid is a three-dimensional solid with rectangular faces. It has 12 edges: 4 on the top face, 4 on the bottom face, and 4 vertical edges connecting the top and bottom. Each vertex connects three edges. Knowing how to count edges, faces, and vertices is important for understanding 3D shapes and nets. Practice by sketching different cuboids and counting their edges. Visualizing the 3D structure helps students recognize patterns and solve related problems in geometry, including surface area and volume calculations.
