About this app

An interactive middle-school math app for exploring cuboids and cylinders through their nets and 3D views. Adjust dimensions, switch between unfolded and solid shapes, and see surface area and volume calculated with visual explanations. A challenge section provides multiple-choice questions and tracks consecutive correct answers.

Use cases

  • Middle-school students learning 3D geometry
  • Teachers demonstrating nets, surface area, and volume
  • Independent practice with cuboids and cylinders
  • Learners reviewing formulas through visual examples

Features

  • Adjust cuboid width, depth, and height with stepper controls
  • Adjust cylinder radius and height using Ο€ = 3.14
  • Toggle between net and solid views
  • Display surface-area and volume calculations
  • Complete four guided missions for each shape
  • Answer quiz questions with a correct-answer streak
