Final answer:

Assembling a net of a square and four identical triangles creates a square-based pyramid with isosceles triangular sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you assemble a net consisting of a square base and four identical triangles with dimensions 4cm x 4cm x 7cm, you would create a polyhedron known as a square-based pyramid. Each triangle represents a side face of the pyramid that meets at a single point above the base, forming the apex of the pyramid.

This polyhedral shape has a flat square bottom and slanting sides that are triangles which connect at a point above the base. The triangles are not equilateral since their sides measure 4cm, 4cm, and 7cm, making the pyramid's side faces isosceles triangles with two equal sides (the 4cm sides) and a base of 7cm.
