4. Quick Area Review…
Rectangle
Formula: A = (b ∙ h)
Triangle
8 in
3 in
5 cm
4 cm
Substitute: A = (8 in ∙ 3 in)
Multiply: A = 24 in2
Divide by 2: A = 10 cm2
5. What is Surface AREA?
The of the
2-dimensional polygons
on the surface of a 3-d
solid. (Think of wrapping a box)
***The sum of all areas.
6. Surface Area of
Rectangular Prims
Top:
A = b ∙ h
A = 10 in ∙ 4 in
A = 40 in2
10 in
4 in
Calculate the area of
the top face:
5 in
Multiply the area of the Top face times 2 to get
the total surface area of the top and the bottom
faces. A = 80 in2
7. Top/Bottom:
A = 10 in ∙ 4 in
A = 40 in2
A = 40 ∙ 2
A = 80 in2
10 in
4 in
5 in
Rectangular Prism cont.
Front/Back:
A = 10 in ∙ 5 in
A = 50 in2
A = 50 ∙ 2
A = 100 in2
Side/Side:
A = 4 in ∙ 5 in
A = 20 in2
A = 20 ∙ 2
A = 40 in2
Sum all areas
80 + 100 + 40
SA = 220 in2
8. A = 81
A = 81
A = 63A = 63 A = 63
A = 63
Method 1:
Add the area of
each face to
calculate the
nets total
surface area.

9. 9 cm
7 cm
9 cm
Orange: Side/Side
A = b ∙ h
A = 9cm ∙ 7cm
A = 63cm2 ∙ 2
SA = 126cm2
Yellow: Top/Bottom
A = b ∙ h
A = 9cm ∙ 7cm
A = 63cm2 ∙ 2
SA = 126cm2
Surface Area using
a net… Method 2:
Area of
each pair
of faces
Blue: Front/Back
A = b ∙ h
A = 9cm ∙ 9cm
A = 81cm2 ∙ 2
SA = 162cm2
10. 9 cm
9 cm
7 cm
Calculate the
Surface Area cont.
Sum:
SA = 126 + 126 + 162
SA = 414 cm2

11. Surface Area of a
Cube…
A cube has 6 equal faces.
4 in
SA = 6s2
SA = 6(4in) 2
SA = 6(16in2)
SA = 96in2
SA = 6(b ∙ h)
SA = 6(4in ∙ 4in)
SA = 6(16in2)
SA = 96in2
OR

15. Final Assignment
Part 1: With a partner, you will create a Tag
Cloud to represent the vocabulary learned
using at least 2 of the following: websites,
videos, or interactive practice. Minimum of 5
vocabulary words.
Part 2: With your partner, create 3- 4 surface
area problems. The problems must include
the work and the final answer. Must have a
combination of problems consisting of nets,
solids, and word problems.
