1. 11.2 Surface area of prisms and cylinders

2. Prism – A polyhedron that has two identical ends (bases) and all flat sides ( lateral faces)
Green – BASES
Other– LATERAL FACES

4. Altitudes
Any segment joining the two planes that contain both bases and is perpendicular to both.
The dashed lines are altitudes.
Adjacent lateral faces intersect at the black solid lines called LATERAL EDGES.
In some prisms lateral edges are also altitudes, BUT NOT ALWAYS.
LATERAL EDGES are all parallel.

5. The height of the prism is the length of the altitude, not necessarily a vertical distance.

6. Right Prisms
A right prism is any prism in which the lateral faces are all rectangles.
In right prisms the lateral edges are also altitudes.

7. Oblique Prisms
Prisms in which the lateral faces are not rectangles (i.e. parallelograms)
In this case the lateral edges are not altitudes.

9. Naming prisms
Most generally prisms are classified by right or oblique, and then further classified by the shape of the base faces.

10. The surface area of a solid is measured in square units.
The Lateral Area (L.A.) – of a prism is the sum of the areas of its lateral faces.
The Total Area (T.A.) – is the sum of the areas of all the faces. Sometimes referred to as just Surface Area
B denotes the area of a base
(total area or surface area ) T.A. = L.A. + 2B
Total area refers to total surface area.

12. Theorem
L.A. = ah + bh + ch + dh + eh
=(a+b+c+d+e)h
=perimeter * h
=ph

13. Find the Surface Area

15. Find the lateral area, surface area.

16. Name the prism
How many lateral faces
Name 2 lateral edges
Name an altitude
CD = 7, find the L.A, T.A.

17. Find the Surface Area using formulas.

19. Cylinder A solid that has two congruent bases that are both circles.
An altitude of a cylinder is the perpendicular segment connecting the two circular bases. The height is the length of the altitude, not necessarily a vertical distance.

22. Find the lateral area
Use the lateral area to find the total area
