Geometry SOL Review - G.13 SA and Volume

Front

What is Surface Area?

Back

Surface Area is the total area that the surface of a three-dimensional object occupies. It is measured in square units.

Front

How do you calculate the Surface Area of a rectangular prism?

Back

Surface Area = 2(lw + lh + wh), where l = length, w = width, h = height.

Front

What is Volume?

Back

Volume is the amount of space that a three-dimensional object occupies, measured in cubic units.

Front

How do you calculate the Volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = l × w × h, where l = length, w = width, h = height.

Front

What is the formula for the Volume of a cylinder?

Back

Volume = πr²h, where r = radius and h = height.

Front

What is the value of π (Pi) used in calculations?

Back

π (Pi) is approximately 3.14.

Front

How do you find the lateral area of a cylinder?

Back

Lateral Area = 2πrh, where r = radius and h = height.

Front

What is the difference between Surface Area and Lateral Area?

Back

Surface Area includes all outer surfaces of a 3D object, while Lateral Area only includes the sides, excluding the top and bottom.

Front

How do you round to the nearest tenth?

Back

Look at the hundredths place; if it's 5 or more, round up. If it's less than 5, keep the tenths place the same.

Front

What is the Surface Area of a cube with side length 4 inches?

Back

Surface Area = 6s² = 6(4)² = 96 inches².
