Total & Lateral Surface Area Review

Front

What is the definition of Lateral Surface Area?

Back

The Lateral Surface Area (LA) of a three-dimensional shape is the total area of all the sides of the shape, excluding the area of the base(s).

What is the formula for calculating Lateral Surface Area of a cylinder?

Back

LA = 2πrh, where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder.

What is the definition of Total Surface Area?

Back

The Total Surface Area (SA) of a three-dimensional shape is the sum of the areas of all its surfaces, including the bases.
