8-7 Surface Area Vocabulary surface area net
3
8-7 Surface Area The surface area of a three- dimensional figure is the sum of the areas of its surfaces. To help you see all the surfaces of a three-dimensional figure, you can use a net. A net is the pattern made when the surface of a three-dimensional figure is layed out flat showing each face of the figure.

8-7 Surface Area Additional Example 1A: Finding the Surface Area of a Prism Find the surface area S of the prism. Method 1: Use a net. Draw a net to help you see each face of the prism. Use the formula A = lw to find the area of each face.
5
8-7 Surface Area Additional Example 1A Continued A: A = 5 2 = 10 B: A = 12 5 = 60 C: A = 12 2 = 24 D: A = 12 5 = 60 E: A = 12 2 = 24 F: A = 5 2 = 10 S = 10 + 60 + 24 + 60 + 24 + 10 = 188 Add the areas of each face. The surface area is 188 in 2.

8-7 Surface Area Additional Example 1B: Finding the Surface Area of a Prism Find the surface area S of each prism. Method 2: Use a three-dimensional drawing. Find the area of the front, top, and side, and multiply each by 2 to include the opposite faces.
7
8-7 Surface Area Additional Example 1B Continued Front: 9 7 = 63 Top: 9 5 = 45 Side: 7 5 = 35 63 2 = 126 45 2 = 90 35 2 = 70 S = 126 + 90 + 70 = 286Add the areas of each face. The surface area is 286 cm 2.

8-7 Surface Area The surface area of a pyramid equals the sum of the area of the base and the areas of the triangular faces. To find the surface area of a pyramid, think of its net.
13
8-7 Surface Area Additional Example 2: Finding the Surface Area of a Pyramid Find the surface area S of the pyramid. S = area of square + 4 (area of triangular face) S = 49 + 4 28 S = 49 + 112 Substitute. S = s 2 + 4 ( bh) 1 2 __ S = 7 2 + 4 ( 7 8) 1 2 __ S = 161 The surface area is 161 ft 2.

8-7 Surface Area The surface area of a cylinder equals the sum of the area of its bases and the area of its curved surface. To find the area of the curved surface of a cylinder, multiply its height by the circumference of the base. Helpful Hint
16
8-7 Surface Area Additional Example 3: Finding the Surface Area of a Cylinder Find the surface area S of the cylinder. Use 3.14 for , and round to the nearest hundredth. S = area of curved surface + 2 (area of each base) Substitute. S = h (2r) + 2 (r 2 ) S = 7 (2 4) + 2 ( 4 2 ) ft
