This example demonstrates the net of a right triangular prism. The key mathematical concept is solid geometry, specifically the triangular prism. Using GeoGebra commands such as Point, Segment, Polygon, Prism, and Net, the net of a right triangular prism can be constructed. Suitable for middle school and above students to learn solid geometry.
