Surface Area of Triangular Prisms

Front

What is surface area?

Back

The sum of all the areas of all the shapes that cover the object.

Front

How do you find the AREA of a TRIANGLE?

Back

1/2 (Base x height)

Front

What 3D solid does this net create?

Back

Triangular Prism

Front

Find the surface area of the triangular prism with a base area of 50 cm² and a height of 10 cm.

Back

Surface Area = 2 * Base Area + Perimeter of Base * Height = 2 * 50 + (Perimeter of Base) * 10.

Front

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

Back

Surface Area = (Base Area * 2) + (Perimeter of Base * Height)

Front

If the base of a triangle is 6 cm and the height is 4 cm, what is the area?

Back

Area = 1/2 (Base x Height) = 1/2 (6 x 4) = 12 cm².

Front

What is a triangular prism?

Back

A 3D shape with two triangular bases and three rectangular faces.

Front

How do you calculate the perimeter of a triangle with sides 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm?

Back

Perimeter = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 cm.

Front

What is the relationship between the base and height of a triangle?

Back

The base and height are perpendicular to each other.

Front

If a triangular prism has a height of 12 cm and a base area of 20 cm², what is the surface area?

Back

Surface Area = 2 * Base Area + Perimeter of Base * Height.
