Exercise 1

Given is the cube A B C D . E F G H with edges of 6 cm. Point P is the center of the edge A E and point Q is the center of C G . The plane P B Q H divides the cube into two solids, one of which is the solid A B C D . P B Q H .

a

Draw the three views of A B C D . P B Q H .

b

Draw the "net" of the solid A B C D . P B Q H .

c

Calculate the size of the angles of the plane P B Q H .

Exercise 2

Here you see a so called hipped roof, a roof with a rectangular base A B C D with the roof-ridge E F situated exactly over the middle of the base. The roof itself consists of twee equilateral triangles and two symmetric trapeziums.

a

Draw its three views.

b

Draw the "net" of this roof.

Exercise 3

The base of a pyramid T . A B C D E is a regular pentagon A B C D E . The height of the pyramid is T S , where point S is the center of the circle through the vertices of the base. All edges of this pyramid are 4 cm.

a

Draw the three views of the pyramid T . A B C D E . Show all necessary calculations.

b

Draw the "net" of this pyramid. Show all necessary calculations.

Exercise 4

Below you see the side view of a purely circular tent.

Draw a "net" of this tent on a scale of 1 : 100 .

Exercise 5

Arab whirling dervishes often wear a so called cone skirt. That is a widening skirt that - if the cloth would be stiff - would have the shape of a truncated cone. Here you see the pattern (the "net") of such a cone skirt.

Draw a front view and a top view of the corresponding truncated cone. Show all necessary calculations.

Exercise 6

The figure you see here is a regular octagonal antiprism. You can find similar figures and their "nets" on the website korthalsaltes.com.
All edges of this antiprism are 5 cm.

Draw an "net" of this antiprism.
