Wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Let's calculate correctly.
A rectangular prism has 6 faces. When unfolded into a net, we see that the rectangular prism contains:
- 2 rectangles with dimensions 6cm x 4cm (length x width).
- 2 rectangles with dimensions 5cm x 4cm (height x width).
- 2 rectangles with dimensions 6cm x 5cm (length x height).
Therefore, there are 2 rectangles in the net that have dimensions 6cm x 4cm.
