[hide]Problem
A regular octahedron has eight equilateral triangle faces with four faces meeting at each vertex. Jun will make the regular octahedrons shown on the right by folding the piece of paper shown on the left. Which numbered face will end up to the right of ?
Solution (Intuition)
The answer is Use intuition to bring it down to guesses or and guess from there or you could actually fold the paper. -apex304
Solution 2
In the net, face shares a vertex with the bottom-left corner of face , but it doesn't share an edge with face , so face must be the face diagonally across from face 's bottom-left corner in the octahedron. Notice that in the octahedron, this face is the only one that doesn't share any vertices with face . On the net, face shares at least 1 vertex with all of the other faces except for face . Thus, the number of face we are being asked for is . -UnknownMonkey -minor edits apex304
