Lesson 1
Surface Area of Prisms and Cylinders
Find the total surface area of rectangular prisms, triangular prisms and cylinders by identifying each face, using nets, and applying TSA formulas.
Lesson 2
Volume of Prisms, Cylinders and Spheres
Calculate volume using V = Ah for prisms, V = πr²h for cylinders and V = (4/3)πr³ for spheres, and convert between cm³, m³ and litres.
Lesson 3
Composite Solids and Practical Applications
Find surface area and volume of composite solids formed by combining or removing basic shapes, and solve practical capacity and material-cost problems.
