Pick's Formula
The area of irregular figures can be calculated using which formula?




A lattice point is the point of intersection of two or more grid lines.

Area is defined as the size of the interior of a figure measured in square units. Some units may include:
The formula for area of a rectangle, A = bh, is derived(produced or generated) in your online textbook on p. 410. Use this information to answer the following question.

Prism
Which is the correct formula for surface area(SA) of a prism? Label the dimensions, p and h for each figure and use the text box to write the formula that would be used to calculate B(base area) in the Show Your Work section.
B = area of the base
p = perimeter of the base
h = height of the 3D figure

Cone
Choose the correct formula for SA of a cone. Label the dimensions(radius and slant height).

1

Pyramid
Choose the correct formula for the SA of a pyramid. Label the dimensions, p and l(slant height) for each figure and use the text box to write the formula that would be used to calculate the B(base area) in the Show Your Work section.
B = area of the base
p = perimeter of the base
l = slant height
