Chapter 13: Visualising 3D in 2D > Easy Level Worksheet

Easy Level Worksheet

Part A: Subjective Questions - Very Short Answer (1 Mark Each)

Note: Answer each question with steps and explanation. Write down the answers on sheet and submit to the school subject teacher.

Solid shapes are three-dimensional objects that have length, breadth, and height. They exist in the real world around us!

Let's explore the basic properties of common 3D shapes like cubes, cuboids, spheres, and more.

1. What is a 3D object?

A 3D object is .

Perfect! 3D objects have three dimensions and occupy space.

2. Write two examples of 3D shapes.

Answer:

3. What is a face of a solid figure?

A face is of a solid shape.

Correct! Faces are the flat surfaces that form the boundaries of 3D shapes.

4. How many edges does a cube have?

Answer: edges

Great! A cube has 12 edges (line segments where two faces meet).

5. How many vertices does a cuboid have?

Answer: vertices

Perfect! A cuboid has 8 vertices (corner points).

Drag each property to its correct 3D shape:

6 faces, 12 edges, 8 vertices
No vertices, no edges
2 flat faces, 1 curved surface
1 vertex, 1 flat face, 1 curved surface
All faces are squares
Perfectly round shape
Cube
Sphere
Cylinder
Cone

Part A: Section B – Short Answer Questions (2 Marks Each)

1. Name the 3D shapes formed by the following:

(a) A square →

(b) A rectangle →

Excellent! A square forms a cube, and a rectangle forms a cuboid.

2. Draw rough sketches of a cube and cuboid.

Note: Draw these on your answer sheet:

Cube: All sides equal, all faces are squares

Cuboid: Opposite faces equal, faces are rectangles

Did you complete your sketches?

Great! Remember to label the shapes in your drawings.

3. Write the number of faces, edges, and vertices of a triangular prism.

Number of faces =

Number of edges =

Number of vertices =

Perfect! A triangular prism has 5 faces, 9 edges, and 6 vertices.

4. Identify the 3D shape:

(a) A ball →

(b) A cone-shaped tent →

Excellent! You can identify 3D shapes from real-world objects.

5. Write any two differences between a cube and a cuboid.

Difference 1: Cube has , Cuboid has

Difference 2: Cube has , Cuboid has

Great! Both are important 3D shapes with distinct properties.

Part B: Objective Questions - Test Your Knowledge!

Answer these multiple choice questions:

6. A cylinder has how many curved surfaces?

(a) 1 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 0

1
2
3
0

Correct! A cylinder has 1 curved surface and 2 flat circular faces.

7. The base of a cone is:

(a) Square (b) Triangle (c) Circle (d) Rectangle

Square
Triangle
Circle
Rectangle

Perfect! A cone has a circular base and a curved surface meeting at a vertex.

8. Which of the following 3D shapes has no vertex?

(a) Cube (b) Sphere (c) Cone (d) Pyramid

Cube
Sphere
Cone
Pyramid

Excellent! A sphere has no vertices, edges, or flat faces - it's perfectly curved.

9. Which of the following has two circular faces?

(a) Cone (b) Sphere (c) Cylinder (d) Cube

Cone
Sphere
Cylinder
Cube

Perfect! A cylinder has two circular faces (top and bottom) and one curved surface.

10. A solid object with only one face is:

(a) Cone (b) Sphere (c) Cylinder (d) Cube

Cone
Sphere
Cylinder
Cube

Correct! A sphere has only one curved surface (one face) with no edges or vertices.

🎉 Fantastic Work! You've Mastered Basic 3D Shapes!

Here's what you learned:

  • 3D Objects: Shapes with length, breadth, and height

  • Key Terms:

    • Face: Flat or curved surface of a solid
    • Edge: Line segment where two faces meet
    • Vertex: Point where edges meet (corner point)
  • Common 3D Shapes:

    ShapeFacesEdgesVertices
    Cube6 (all squares)128
    Cuboid6 (rectangles)128
    Sphere1 (curved)00
    Cylinder3 (2 flat + 1 curved)20
    Cone2 (1 flat + 1 curved)11
  • Real-World Examples:

    • Cube: Dice, Rubik's cube
    • Cuboid: Brick, book, box
    • Sphere: Ball, globe
    • Cylinder: Can, pipe
    • Cone: Ice cream cone, party hat
