12.1 Surface Areas of Prisms
2
Polyhedra: a solid with flat faces Poly - many hedra - faces (flat faces) solid shapes faces are polygons lines are edges
3
One type of polyhedron Bases - Two congruent parallel faces Lateral edges – parallel edges that join the vertices of the bases Prism:
4
Lateral faces – faces of the prism that are not the bases and are parallelograms Named by shape of the base
5
Triangular prism: basewidth height
6
Rectangular prism: base width height
7
Hexagonal prism The bases are hexagons. How many sides? What are their shapes?
8
Lateral surface (L.A.): Sum of the area of the lateral faces.
9
Base area: area of the base doubled Total area: lateral area plus 2 base areas
10
Find the surface area 14m 15m 13m 20m 12m SA= A △ + A △ +A +A +A Remember: the 2 △ are the same, but all 3 are not the same!
12
Find the surface for a right rectangular prism with the given dimensions. B=18, L=9, W=9 Draw the picture Write the formula Solve, answer with units
