Pyramid Net Construction by Ben Roth
Loading the math board and drawing, please wait…
This example demonstrates the net of a pyramid. Key mathematical concepts include the geometry of polyhedra. Using GeoGebra commands such as OrthogonalLine, Intersect, and Polygon, the net of a pyramid is constructed. Suitable for middle school and above students studying solid geometry.
