In this lesson, the second in a four-part series from Illuminations titled “Spatial Reasoning Using Cubes and Isometric Drawings: Part Two: Solid to Isometric—One to Many,” students explore polyhedra using different representations and perspectives for three dimensional block figures. Students use interactive Java applets to determine when two isometric drawings actually represent the same shape.
