Total Surface Area of Prisms and Pyramids Using Nets

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for the total surface area of a cube?

Back

Total Surface Area = 6s², where s = length of a side.

Front

What is a net in geometry?

Back

A net is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional figure that can be folded to form the figure.

Front

How do you find the lateral surface area of a prism?

Back

Lateral Surface Area = perimeter of the base × height.

Front

What is the total surface area of a square pyramid?

Back

Total Surface Area = Base Area + Lateral Area = s² + 2sl, where s = side length of the base and l = slant height.

Front

What is the difference between lateral surface area and total surface area?

Back

Lateral surface area includes only the sides of the figure, while total surface area includes the sides and the base(s).

Front

How do you calculate the surface area of a cylinder?

Back

Total Surface Area = 2πr² + 2πrh, where r = radius and h = height.

Front

What is the total surface area of a rectangular pyramid?

Back

Total Surface Area = Base Area + Lateral Area = lw + 1/2 * perimeter of base * slant height.

Front

What is the formula for the lateral surface area of a cone?

Back

Lateral Surface Area = πrl, where r = radius and l = slant height.

Front

How do you find the surface area of a triangular prism?

Back

Total Surface Area = (Base Area) + (Lateral Area) = bh + perimeter of base × height.
