Question

part of the net of a rectangular prism is shown. use the polygon tool to draw the 2 missing faces. draw all four sides of each face. your polygon will turn blue when it is complete

Explanation:

Step1: Recall Rectangular Prism Net

A rectangular prism net has 6 rectangular faces (in some cases, 2 squares and 4 rectangles). The given net has a top square/rectangle, three side rectangles, and a bottom row. We need two missing faces: one should be attached to the top - left rectangle's top (to form a pair with the bottom - left) and one to the right - most rectangle's right (to form a pair with the left - most in the middle row).

Step2: Identify Missing Face Positions

  1. The first missing face: Look at the top - left rectangle (the small one at the top). Its top side is open. We need to draw a rectangle (or square) with the same dimensions as the bottom - left rectangle. So, connect the top - right vertex of the top - left rectangle horizontally to the right (matching the width of the bottom - left) and vertically down (matching the height) to form a closed rectangle.
  2. The second missing face: Look at the right - most rectangle in the middle row. Its right side is open. We need to draw a rectangle with the same dimensions as the left - most rectangle in the middle row. So, connect the top - right vertex of the right - most rectangle horizontally to the right (matching the width of the left - most middle rectangle) and vertically down (matching the height) to form a closed rectangle.

(Note: Since this is a drawing task, the key is to identify the correct positions of the missing rectangular faces based on the properties of a rectangular prism's net, where opposite faces are congruent and adjacent faces share sides.)

Answer:

To draw the missing faces:

  1. For the top - left missing face: Connect the top - right corner of the top - left rectangle (from the given net) horizontally to the right (same length as the bottom - left rectangle's top side) and vertically down (same length as the bottom - left rectangle's right side) to form a rectangle.
  2. For the right - most missing face: Connect the top - right corner of the right - most rectangle (in the middle row) horizontally to the right (same length as the left - most middle rectangle's top side) and vertically down (same length as the left - most middle rectangle's right side) to form a rectangle.

(When using the Polygon tool, make sure to draw all four sides of each face, and the polygon will turn blue when complete.)
