Math B Project Surface Area and Volume of 3D Prisms with Nets By Kyle Garcia

There are a lot of things to do to find the surface area and volume of a prism, but we need to know what they mean. Surface Area: Surface Area: The space that covers the face of a 3D object by using a formula. Volume: Volume: The space that fills the inside of a 3D shape. Prisms: Prisms: a 3D shape that is named for the top and bottom and whose side is all rectangles.

Also, one other thing that is primary to knowing 3D shapes is nets. A net is pretty much the paper that if it is folded correctly, it will turn into a 3D shape. Cube: its net has 4 squares in sequenced order and one square on each side. Rectangular prism: its net has 4 rectangles going horizontal or vertically, with two squares on each side. Triangular prism: its net has 3 squares in a sequenced order with one triangle on each side.

Square Pyramid: its net has a square in the middle with 4 triangles coming out on each side. There can be many different types of 3D pyramids, such as a triangle pyramid. The triangle replaces the square part. Cylinder: its net has one rectangle with two circles on opposite sides.

Surface Area Surface Area

For cubes, it is There is a formula for most 3D shapes. For cylinders, it is For rectangular prisms, it is

Volume

Volume also has formulas for 3D shapes. For cylinders, it is For cubes, it is For rectangular prisms, it is

Also, volume is always labeled units cubed, unless the units are different. Also, volume is always labeled units cubed, unless the units are different. Area is always labeled units squared, unless the untis are different Area is always labeled units squared, unless the untis are different

Thank you for watching Thank you for watching ! Pi= 3.14 To use this formula you need to substitute and simplify. For the volume of cubes, s x s x s can also be side to the third power.
