SURFACE AREA OF PRISMS AND PYRAMIDS

Front

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

Back

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

Front

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

Back

Surface Area = bh + l1h + l2h + l3h, where b = base, h = height, l1, l2, l3 = lengths of the triangular sides.

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a triangular prism?

Back

Volume = (1/2) × base × height × length.

Front

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

Back

Surface Area = (1/2) × perimeter of base × slant height + area of base.

Front

What is the formula for the volume of a square pyramid?

Back

Volume = (1/3) × base area × height.

Front

What is the difference between surface area and volume?

Back

Surface area measures the total area of the surface of a 3D object, while volume measures the amount of space inside the object.

Front

What is a prism?

Back

A prism is a 3D shape with two parallel, congruent bases connected by rectangular faces.

Front

What is a pyramid?

Back

A pyramid is a 3D shape with a polygonal base and triangular faces that meet at a single point (the apex).

Front

How do you find the surface area of a cylinder?

Back

Surface Area = 2πr(h + r), where r = radius and h = height.
