The student will also learn to find the surface area of three-
dimensional objects. To find the surface area of a prism, the
student can use a net. A net is the pattern made when the
surface of a three-dimensional object is layed out flat showing
each face of the object. To find the surface area, add the
areas of each face.
The student will use these formulas to find the surface area of
Rectangular prisms, pyramids, and cylinders.
