Surface Area of Prisms, Cylinders, and Pyramids

Front

What is the formula for the surface area of a cylinder?

Back

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

Front

What is the surface area of a rectangular prism?

Back

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

Front

How many bases does a pyramid have?

Back

A pyramid has 1 base.

Front

What is the surface area of a pyramid?

Back

Surface Area = Base Area + (1/2 * Perimeter of Base * Slant Height).

Front

What is the difference between a prism and a pyramid?

Back

A prism has two parallel bases, while a pyramid has one base and triangular faces that meet at a point.

Front

What is the surface area of a cube with side length 4 cm?

Back

Surface Area = 6s² = 6(4)² = 96 cm².

Front

What is the surface area of a triangular prism?

Back

Surface Area = (Base Area + Lateral Area). Lateral Area = Perimeter of Base * Height.

Front

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

Back

Surface Area = πr(r + l), where r is the radius and l is the slant height.

Front

If a cylinder has a radius of 3 cm and a height of 5 cm, what is its surface area?

Back

Surface Area = 2π(3)(5 + 3) = 2π(3)(8) = 48π ≈ 150.8 cm².

Front

What is the surface area of a sphere?

Back

Surface Area = 4πr², where r is the radius.
