G.13 Surface Area and Volume

Make sure you have your formulas handy!

Square Pyramid

a three-dimensional shape with a square base and four triangular faces that meet at a point called the apex

First we will find Surface Area(SA).

l is your slant height.

p is your perimeter of your square base (4 times the side length)

B is your Area of the base (side x side)

SA = 1/2lp + B

1/2 x 17 x 4(16) + 16²

1/2 x 17 x 64 + 256

SA = 800 inches²

A triangular prism has 2 congruent triangular bases and three rectangular faces.

​

SA = hp + 2B

h = height of the prism (not on the triangle)=12

p = perimeter of base(add up the 3 sides) = 8+8+8

B = area of base (1/2bh) = 1/2 x 8 x 3

SA = hp + 2B

12(8 + 8 + 8) + 2(1/2 x 8 x 3)
