10-4 Space FiguresBase (B)-The two parallel sides of a prism

Faces - The sides (polygons) of a prism

Prism- A 3-dimensional shape with two parallel bases and sides that are all polygons

1.) What is the shape of the bases in this prism?

Cylinder- A three dimensional shape with two   circular, parallel bases  (similar to a prism)

Pyramid - A 3-dimensional shape with one polygon as a base and triangular sides that meet at a vertex

Cone - A three dimensional shape with one  circle as a base and one vertex   (similar to a pyramid)

Sphere- All points the same distance from a   given point. Also know as a ball.

Net- A pattern you can fold into a space figure

Name the solid shape that can be made from each net.

Surface area- The total area of the surface (faces and bases) of a three-dimensional figure

Lateral Area- the area of the faces of a three dimensional shape (Surface area not including the bases)

For a rectangular prism, the surface area is the sum of the areas of all 6 faces
