Geometric Nets Project Book

Geometric nets provide many hours of fascinating fun Each net represents the surface of a unique geometric shape. Some of the shapes were described as much as 2500 years ago.

A geometric net is a flat drawing that can be cut and folded into a three dimensional figure. For example, six identical squares can be made into a cube. This is because a cube has six sides, all of which are identical squares. Each of the drawings in this book can be cut and folded into a three dimensional geometric object.

This book contains 80 geometric nets: Bielongated Triangular Antiprism Cone Cube Cuboctahedron Cylinder Decagonal Antiprism Decagonal Prism Deltoidal Icositetrahedron Die Disdyakis Dodecahedron Dodecahedron, Regular Elongated Pentagonal Bipyramid Elongated Pentagonal Cupola Elongated Pentagonal Pyramid Elongated Square Bipyramid Elongated Square Pyramid Elongated Triangular Antiprism Elongated Triangular Bipyramid Elongated Triangular Cupola Elongated Triangular Pyramid Frustum of a Decagon Pyramid Frustum of a Quadrilateral Pyramid Frustum of a Triangular Pyramid Great Dodecahedron Great Stellated Dodecahedron Gyroelongated Pentagonal Pyramid Gyroelongated Square Bipyramid Gyroelongated Square Prism Gyroelongated Square Pyramid Heptagonal Pyramid Heptahedron 4,4,4,3,3,3,3 Heptahedron 5,5,5,4,4,4,3 Heptahedron 6,6,4,4,4,3,3 Hexagonal Prism Hexagonal Pyramid Hexahedron 4,4,4,4,3,3 Hexahedron 5,4,4,3,3,3 Hexahedron 5,5,4,4,3,3 Icosahedron, Regular Icosidodecahedron Oblique Square Pyramid Octagonal Antiprism Octahedron, Regular Pentagonal Antiprism Pentagonal Bipyramid Pentagonal Cupola Pentagonal Prism Pentagonal Pyramid Pentagonal Rotunda Pentagonal Star Prism Rectangular Pyramid Rhombic Prism Rhombicuboctahedron Right Pentagonal Star Pyramid Small Rhombidodecahedron Small Stellated Dodecahedron Snub Cube Snub Dodecahedron Square Antiprism Square Cupola Square Pyramid Square Trapezohedron Stellated Octahedron Tetrahedron - Regular Tetrakis Hexahedron Triakis Octahedron Triakis Tetrahedron Triangular Bipyramid Triangular Cupola Triangular Pentahedron Triangular Prism Triangular Pyramid, Oblique Truncated Cube Truncated Cuboctahedron Truncated Dodecahedron Truncated Icosahedron Truncated Icosidodecahedron Truncated Octahedron Truncated Square Trapezohedron Truncated Tetrahedron
