  1. A soldier is facing North. They turn 90° clockwise, then 180°. Which direction are they now facing?

    Answer: West

    Turning 90° clockwise from North gives East, then turning 180° from East gives West.

  2. A cube sits with its red face on top and its blue face toward you. If the cube is tipped forward 90° (away from you), which face is now on top?

    Answer: Blue

    When a cube tips forward 90°, the front face (blue) rotates up to become the new top face.

  3. A patrol travels 3 km East then 4 km North. What is the straight-line distance from their starting point?

    Answer: 5 km

    Using the Pythagorean theorem: √(3² + 4²) = √25 = 5 km.

  4. A clock shows exactly 3:00. What time does its mirror reflection appear to show?

    Answer: 9:00

    A horizontal mirror flip reverses the clock face so the hour hand points to 9 instead of 3.

  5. A square piece of paper is folded in half diagonally, then folded in half again. How many layers of paper are there?

    Answer: 4

    Each fold doubles the layers: 1 → 2 → 4 layers after two folds.

  6. A 3×3×3 cube is assembled from small unit cubes and all outer faces are painted. How many unit cubes have exactly 3 painted faces?

    Answer: 8

    Only the 8 corner unit cubes are exposed on exactly 3 faces and therefore have 3 painted faces.

  7. How many individual rectangular faces does the unfolded net of a standard rectangular box (cuboid) contain?

    Answer: 6

    A rectangular cuboid has 6 faces (3 pairs of opposite rectangles), so its net contains 6 shapes.
