Tessellations/SA and Volume Review

Front

What shape makes up the tessellation in the image?

Back

Hexagons are commonly used in tessellations due to their ability to fit together without gaps.

Front

In the equation: Ph + 2B, why are you multiplying by 2?

Back

It is multiplying B by 2 because there are two bases in a three-dimensional shape.

Define tessellation.

Back

Tessellation is the covering of a plane with a pattern of one or more geometric shapes, called tiles, with no overlaps and no gaps.

What is the formula for the surface area of a square pyramid?

Back

The formula is SA = B + 1/2 * P * l, where B is the area of the base, P is the perimeter of the base, and l is the slant height.
