An illustration shows the unfolded version of an object comprising of 6 squares. There are 3 adjoining squares positioned horizontally. The first square shares its bottom side with an adjoining fourth square. The third horizontal square shares its bottom side with a fifth square and a sixth square that are stacked vertically. Folds are shown as dashed lines.

An illustration shows the unfolded version of an object comprising of 6 squares. There are three rows of squares. The first row is a single square. The second row is 2 squares. The second square of the second row adjoins the bottom of the square in the first row. The third row is 3 squares. The first square of the third row adjoins the bottom of the second square of the second row. Folds are shown as dashed lines.

An illustration shows an unfolded version of a cube. Four adjoining squares are positioned horizontally. A fifth square adjoins the top side of the first square. A sixth square adjoins the bottom side of the fourth square. Folds are shown as dashed lines.

Answer 1

To determine which net can be folded into a cube, we need to visualize how each arrangement of squares would come together to form a 3-dimensional shape.

1. First Illustration: This net has a configuration that can fold into a cube. It has 6 squares arranged in a manner that allows for all sides to come together.

2. Second Illustration: This arrangement does not form a cube when folded. The layout would not allow the squares to connect in a way that creates a closed 3-dimensional shape.

3. Third Illustration: This net is a classic arrangement of 6 squares (also known as the T-shape) that can definitely fold into a cube.

4. Fourth Illustration: This does not allow for a cube to be formed, as the way the squares are positioned would not allow all sides to come together in a cube-like structure.

Based on this analysis, the first and third illustrations show nets that can be folded into a cube. The third illustration clearly illustrates the classic cube net.
