How do you calculate the surface area of a cube?

Back

The surface area of a cube is calculated using the formula: SA = 6a², where 'a' is the length of one side of the cube.

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

Back

The surface area of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula: SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l = length, w = width, and h = height.

Front

If a rectangular prism has dimensions 2 cm, 3 cm, and 4 cm, what is its surface area?

Back

The surface area is 52 cm² (SA = 2(2*3 + 2*4 + 3*4) = 52).

Front

What is the surface area of a cylinder?

Back

The surface area of a cylinder is calculated using the formula: SA = 2πr(h + r), where 'r' is the radius and 'h' is the height.

Front

What is the surface area of a sphere?

Back

The surface area of a sphere is calculated using the formula: SA = 4πr², where 'r' is the radius.

What is the relationship between surface area and volume?

Back

Surface area measures the total area of an object's surface, while volume measures the amount of space an object occupies. They are related but represent different properties.

Front

Why is surface area important in real life?

Back

Surface area is important in various fields such as engineering, architecture, and biology, as it affects heat transfer, chemical reactions, and material usage.
