Which of the following cubes in the answer figure CANNOT be made on the basis of the unfolded cube in the question figure?

- AA
- BB
- CC
- DD
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
To solve this, let us identify the pairs of opposite faces from the unfolded net. In an unfolded cube net, alternate faces are opposite to each other:
1. The face with the shaded horizontal line / divided rectangle is opposite to the face with the plain square.
2. The face with the **star () is opposite to the face with the circle ().
3. The top face with the two mini vertical rectangles / grid is opposite to the bottom face containing the single solid dot ().
Rule of Cubes**: Opposite faces can never be adjacent to each other and cannot be seen together on a 3D folded cube.
Let's evaluate the options:
* In Option B: The star () and the solid dot () are visible. They are adjacent in the net, so this can be formed.
* In Option C: The grid face, the solid dot (), and the circle () are shown. However, from our analysis, the grid face and the solid dot () are opposite faces. Since they appear adjacent to each other here, this cube cannot be made.
