Hint 2 of 2
A valid view must keep the same number of cubes and the same connections, just seen from another side.
Show solution
Approach: rotate the solid and match cube count and connections
- The given solid has a fixed number of cubes joined in a particular way.
- Each option is checked to see whether it is the same solid seen from a different direction.
- Only C is a genuine rotation of the original solid.
- So the answer is C.
