Surface Areas of Prisms and Cylinders
Objective: Learn to solve for the surface areas of prisms and cylinders
Prism – a polyhedron with exactly two congruent, parallel faces, called bases. You name
the prism by the shape of its bases.
Altitude – altitude of a prism is a perpendicular segment that joins the planes of the
bases
Height (h) - the length of an altitude
Surface Area – the sum of the lateral area and the area of the two bases
Lateral Area – sum of the areas of the lateral faces
Example:
Cylinder – like a prism, cylinder has two congruent parallel bases in the form of a circle.
