A cube net has its 6 squares numbered 1 to 6. Squares 1 and 6, 2 and 5, 3 and 4 are pairs of opposite faces. If the faces showing 1 and 2 are adjacent and meet at an edge, can face 1 ever be opposite face 2?

Question

Accepted Answer

No, opposite faces never share an edge. Opposite faces of a cube are parallel and never touch, so faces sharing an edge are adjacent, never opposite.
