About this Simulation

This interactive simulation allows learners to explore the nets of various prisms by dynamically unfolding 3D prism models into their 2D net representations. Students can visualise how faces connect, manipulate different prism types, and understand the relationship between surface area and net configurations.

Learning objectives: Understand how 3D prisms unfold into 2D nets | Recognise and identify faces, edges, and vertices in prism geometry | Apply spatial reasoning to predict and verify net patterns for different prism types
