Aim: How do we find surface area and lateral area of prisms and cylinders?

Prisms is a solid with bases that are 2 congruent polygons. The other sides of the prisms are called the lateral faces.



















Surface Area : Lateral area + area of the two ends(bases)
Lateral area: Perimeter of the base*height
Surface area : perimeter of base* height + 2(Area of the base)

Cylinders


Surface Area: Areas of top and bottom +Area of the side
Lateral area: 2*pi*r*h
Surface area: Surface Area = 2(pi r 2) + (2 pi r)* h
