Representations of 3D Shapes Example
1. Net A pattern that you can cut and fold to
make a model of a 3D shape.
2. Properties of Faces = flat surfaces A cube has 6 faces, 12 edges and 8
Solids Edges = sides/lengths vertices.
Vertices = corners
3. Plans and This takes 3D drawings and produces 2D
Elevations drawings.
Plan View: from above
Side Elevation: from the side
Front Elevation: from the front
4. Isometric A method for visually representing 3D
Drawing objects in 2D.
