Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A manufacturer in São Paulo designs a cardboard box in the shape of a triangular prism. Which of the following nets could be folded to make a triangular prism?

  1. Two triangles and three rectangles arranged with triangles at opposite ends
  2. Six identical squares arranged in a cross shape
  3. Four triangles arranged around a square base
  4. Two circles and one rectangle
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: ATwo triangles and three rectangles arranged with triangles at opposite ends
Award 1 mark for identifying that a triangular prism has 2 triangular faces and 3 rectangular faces. B is incorrect — this is the net of a cube. C is incorrect — this describes the net of a square-based pyramid. D is incorrect — this describes the net of a cylinder.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

A chocolate company in Switzerland produces chocolates in the shape of a square-based pyramid. How many faces does the net of this pyramid have?

  1. 4
  2. 5
  3. 6
  4. 8
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B5
Award 1 mark for 5 faces. A square-based pyramid has 1 square base and 4 triangular faces, giving 5 faces in total. A is incorrect — this omits the base. C is incorrect — this is the number of faces on a triangular prism. D is incorrect — this is the number of faces on an octahedron.

CIE IGCSE Mathematics: Geometry: Nets, plans and elevations of 3D shapes FAQ

How many CIE IGCSE Mathematics questions on Geometry: Nets, plans and elevations of 3D shapes are there on Kramizo?
Kramizo currently has 20 exam-board-aligned practice questions on Geometry: Nets, plans and elevations of 3D shapes for CIE IGCSE Mathematics, with new questions added every week. Each question gives you instant feedback and a full examiner-style mark scheme that tells you exactly what would earn marks on a real CIE paper. The questions span the full difficulty range — from straightforward recall (level 1) right up to multi-step reasoning and evaluation (level 3) — so the bank works for first-pass revision and final exam-week stress testing alike.
Is Kramizo free for CIE IGCSE students preparing for Mathematics?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Geometry: Nets, plans and elevations of 3D shapes practice with other Mathematics topics or even switch to a totally different CIE subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Geometry: Nets, plans and elevations of 3D shapes questions aligned to the official CIE IGCSE Mathematics syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CIE IGCSE Mathematics specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CIE paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CIE.
How is Geometry: Nets, plans and elevations of 3D shapes typically tested on CIE IGCSE Mathematics papers?
Geometry: Nets, plans and elevations of 3D shapes appears across multiple question types on real CIE IGCSE Mathematics papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
