A wooden block measures 2 inches by 2 inches by 3 inches. A wedge is cut off from each corner of the block by slicing at points that are 1 inch from each corner. How many edges does the resulting solid have?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Number of edges in the resulting solid = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

A wooden block measures 2 inches by 2 inches by 3 inches. A wedge is cut off from each corner of the block by slicing at points that are 1 inch from each corner.

We are supposed to find the number of edges that are in the resulting solid.

In some corners , if we take out inch from both, then there would be nothing remaining.

The two faces along the height would be removed and it will become sharpened.

So the number of edges = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12
