Surface Area of Prisms 7.G.6: Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume, and surface area of two- and three- dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes, and right prisms. Lesson 9.1
2
Real-Life Connection Gift wrap How is gift wrapping related to surface area?
3
Surface Area Vocabulary surface area lateral face lateral area lateral surface
4
Surface Area The sum of the areas of all the surfaces (faces) of a 3D figure. *We use nets (a 2D pattern) to see all the faces of the solid as if it was “unfolded.”
5
Surface Areas of Prisms Lateral faces of a prism are parallelogram s that connect the bases. Lateral area of a prism is the sum of the areas of the lateral faces. S = 2B + L S = 2B + Ph
6
Surface Areas of Prisms Use your favorite version of the formula! S = 2B + L, S = 2b + Ph, S = 2lw+2lh+2wh, etc. Mrs. Sun’s personal favorite is: S = 2B + Ph Mrs. Sun’s personal favorite is: S = 2B + Ph Mrs. Sun’s personal favorite is: S = 2B + Ph
7
Also remember… If you forget the formula You can always find the areas of each face and add the areas together! This is aka “Lateral Surface Area”
8
Identifying different types of prisms Two identical bases gives the prism its name The other lateral faces should be parallelograms
9
Example 1 – Finding SA by drawing a net Identify the prism. Find the surface area by drawing a net. (Helps to draw the bases first)
10
You Try!
11
Example 2 – Find the SA of a Triangular Prism Find the surface area of the prism. Option: Draw a net (don’t have to) Show your formula to solve Optional net: S = 84 m 2
12
You Try! SA = 2B + Ph = 204 ft 2 = 2( 8 3) + (18)(10) 1212 Find the surface area of the figure. The figure is a triangular prism.
13
You Try!
14
Surface Area of a Cube All edges have the same length S = 6s 2
