1. Geometry Honors Section 7.1 Surface Area and Volume of Boxes

2. The *surface area of a 3- dimensional object is the sum of the areas of all of its exposed surfaces.

3. The *volume of a 3-dimensional object is the number of cubic units needed to completely fill the object.

4. NOTE: If a unit of measure is given in the problem, you must include the appropriate unit on your answer.

5. The surface area S, and volume V, of a box with length l, width w and height h are S = V =

6. The surface area S, and volume V, of a cube with edge e are S = V =

7. Example 1: Find the surface area and volume of the two cereal boxes.

8. Example 2: Find the height of a box with a length of 2”, a width of 5” and a surface area of 104 in 2 ?

9. Example 3: What is the length of an edge of a cube if its volume is 405,224 mm 3 ?
