What is a net pattern?

A net pattern is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional object that can be folded to form the object. It typically consists of a series of connected shapes, such as triangles, rectangles, or polygons, that outline the surfaces of the object. Commonly used in geometry and design, net patterns help visualize and understand the properties of solids, such as prisms, pyramids, and cubes, by showing how the surfaces are arranged.
