Net of the truncated body
The solid (pyramid) is cut by the horizontal plane z = 6.2. Find the net of the remaining body.
Step-by-step solution
- Find the section of the solid by the cutting plane.
- Unfold the trimmed lateral faces, the base and the top (the section in true shape).
- Check that the net does not overlap and that the perimeter of the top matches the upper edge.
- If the plane does not cut the body, there is no truncated body.
Result: net with 6 pieces; surface 47.97 u².
The top of the truncated body is the section in true shape: if you do not rotate it flat, the net is wrong.
