- Features of Rectangular Prisms and Cubes
Reading a box shape off a sketch, and word problems answering questions about that shape, stand together. Features asks, by symbol, which of four solids belong to Rectangular Prisms and Cubes, and Features (Word Problems) answers edge lengths and the shapes of faces. Number of Vertices, Edges, and Faces counts three figures, and Edges of the Same Length writes out every edge of matching length.

Because a sketch draws even a square face as a slanted shape, telling a cube apart by look alone causes hesitation. Which to pick is settled by the cm figures written into the drawing. Among the four, the box whose height, width and depth are all the same figure is the cube, and the box where those three do not match is the rectangular prism.
What gets held first are the counts and lengths of the parts a solid is made of. How the edges and faces counted here meet and face one another is investigated in Perpendicular and Parallel Edges and Faces.
