Lateral area and surface area are simple concepts, but calculating them is not as easy! Using formulas, learners calculate lateral area and surface area for the same three-dimensional figures. The resource discusses the formula variables...

Give your scholars the support they need to work with formulas. A reference page offers definitions and picture examples of perimeter, area, surface area, volume, the Pythagorean theorem, a variety of shapes, and more. 

Triangles and prisms don't stand a chance when your learners use this handout full of the formulas they need to know about the different shapes. Area, volume, and surface formulas are all covered along with the standard measurement and...

Students will extend their knowledge of surface area and nets of rectangular prisms to generalize a formula for the surface area of any prism.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This study guide reviews the surface area and volume of prisms and cylinders.

Use this interactive tool to explore prisms. Change the height and the shape of the base to see how these affect the prism. There are also several additional options, e.g., making it oblique or transparent. Properties of a prism are...

Students learn about the properties of a prism, some different types, and the formulas for surface area and volume. Includes an interactive prism and multiple-choice questions.
