Your mum is on the local kindergarten committee.
Its members are getting ready for their annual
fundraising event, a lamington drive.
The lamingtons are to be packed in presentation
boxes, each holding 12. Each lamington
measures 8 centimetres by 4 centimetres
and is 5 centimetres high.
Your mum has agreed to design the boxes, but
she is very busy, so she asks you to do this for
her. Design at least 3 boxes so that she
will have a choice.
1. Draw the nets for your containers,
showing the necessary measurements.
2. Which container do you think is most
suitable? Give reasons for your decision.
3. Make the container.
