Area, Surface Area, Volume

Front

What is the definition of area?

Back

Area is the amount of space inside a two-dimensional shape, measured in square units.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the area of a rectangle?

Back

Area = length × width.

Front

What is surface area?

Back

Surface area is the total area of the surface of a three-dimensional object, measured in square units.

Front

What is the formula for calculating 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 occupied by a three-dimensional object, measured in cubic units.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = length × width × height.

Front

What is a triangular prism?

Back

A triangular prism is a three-dimensional shape with two triangular bases and three rectangular faces.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is a net in geometry?

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between nets and polyhedra?

Back

Nets are used to visualize and construct polyhedra by showing all the faces laid out flat.
