6.G.A.4 Tutor Intake -- Nets and Surface Area
This short check helps your tutor see where to start. Work each problem on
your own, without a calculator unless a problem says otherwise. If you are
not sure, give your best try — every answer helps your tutor plan your
first few sessions.
Concepts
A student unfolds a rectangular prism into a net arranged like a
"T" shape. A classmate unfolds the SAME rectangular prism into a
different net, arranged like a "+" (plus sign) shape. Both
arrangements have all 6 rectangular faces present, correctly
shaped, and fold cleanly with no gaps or overlaps. Are both
valid nets of the prism?
Procedures
A triangular prism has a right-triangle base with legs 3 and 4
and hypotenuse 5 (triangle altitude relevant to area = 4, base =
3). The prism itself is 6 units long. Which value should be used
as the width of the three rectangular side faces?
