Geometry B 9.1-9.3 Flashcard Review

Front

What is the slant height of a cone?

Back

The slant height of a cone is the distance from the base to the apex along the side of the cone. It can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem if the radius and height are known.

Front

What is the height of a prism?

Back

The height of a prism is the perpendicular distance between its two bases. It is essential for calculating the volume and surface area of the prism.

Front

What is the surface area of a triangular prism?

Back

The surface area of a triangular prism can be calculated using the formula: Surface Area = (Base Area x 2) + (Perimeter of Base x Height).

Front

What is the lateral area of a prism?

Back

The lateral area of a prism is the sum of the areas of all the lateral faces (the sides) of the prism. It can be calculated as: Lateral Area = Perimeter of Base x Height.

Front

How do you calculate the surface area of a cylinder?

Back

The surface area of a cylinder can be calculated using the formula: Surface Area = 2πr(h + r), where r is the radius and h is the height.

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a cone?

Back

The volume of a cone is calculated using the formula: Volume = (1/3)πr²h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height.

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a prism?

Back

The volume of a prism is calculated using the formula: Volume = Base Area x Height.

Front

What is the relationship between diameter and radius?

Back

The diameter of a circle is twice the length of the radius. Diameter = 2 x Radius.

Front

What is the formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism?

Back

The surface area of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula: Surface Area = 2(lw + lh + wh), where l is length, w is width, and h is height.

Front

What is a right prism?

Back

A right prism is a prism where the sides are perpendicular to the bases. This means that the lateral faces are rectangles.
