(i) The name of this solid is a cuboid.
To find the sum of the lengths of the edges of the cuboid, we need to first find the lengths of the other edges. Since BP = PC, and the total length of AB is 10 cm, we can divide this length in half to find the lengths of BP and PC.
So, BP = PC = 5 cm.
Now, we know that all the edges of a cuboid are in pairs of equal length. So, the lengths of the edges of the cuboid are:
- AB and DC = 10 cm
- BC and AD = 12 cm
- AC and BD = 5 cm
Adding up the lengths of all the edges, we get:
10 + 10 + 12 + 12 + 5 + 5 = 54 cm
Therefore, the sum of the lengths of the edges of the cuboid is 54 cm.
AB = 10 cm, MP = 12 cm and BP = PC
A solid can be made from the net.
