Surface Area Triangular Prisms

Front

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

Back

The surface area (SA) of a triangular prism can be calculated using the formula: SA = (Base Area x 2) + (Perimeter of Base x Height).

Front

What is the lateral surface area of a prism?

Back

The lateral surface area of a prism is the sum of the areas of all the lateral faces, excluding the bases.

Front

If the base of a triangle is 10 cm and the height is 5 cm, what is the area?

Front

What is the difference between total surface area and lateral surface area?

Back

Total surface area includes the areas of the bases and the lateral faces, while lateral surface area only includes the areas of the lateral faces.

Front

How do you find the perimeter of a triangle?

Back

The perimeter of a triangle is found by adding the lengths of all three sides: Perimeter = Side1 + Side2 + Side3.

Front

What units are used to measure surface area?

Back

Surface area is measured in square units, such as square centimeters (cm²), square meters (m²), or square feet (ft²).

Front

If a triangular prism has a base area of 30 cm² and a height of 10 cm, what is the total surface area?

Back

Total Surface Area = (Base Area x 2) + (Perimeter of Base x Height). Calculate using the given values.

Front

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

Back

The volume (V) of a triangular prism is calculated using the formula: V = Base Area x Height.
