Fold across a shared edge
Six squares make a cube net. A and B share an edge, so they remain adjacent after folding. Faces that share an edge cannot be opposite. Touching only at a corner does not give this rule.
Track the three opposite pairs
Hold A facing you. B and C become the left and right faces; D and E become the top and bottom. F closes the back. The opposite pairs are A and F, B and C, and D and E. These two views show the same cube from opposite sides.
Try a different net
This net has a different layout, not just new letters. Keep G as your reference and follow the folds across shared edges. Which face ends up opposite G?
Try it
Which face ends up opposite G?
- Face J.
- Face M.
Show the answer
Face M.
M is opposite G. H folds beside G, then M closes the far side. J shares an edge with G, so it remains adjacent.
