Join us on an exciting mission to master the total area of pyramids and cones! We will explore the essential vocabulary, including total surface area, lateral area, and slant height. Learn the key formulas for calculating lateral area (L.A.) and surface area (S.A.) of these geometric shapes. Test your skills with problems, like finding the surface area of a cone with a radius of 10 and slant height of 13. With detailed examples and engaging activities, mastering these concepts will be both fun and rewarding!

Mission 2 Mission for 2: To successfully find the total area of pyramids and cones. Vocabulary: total (surface) area, lateral area, slant height (s) Formulas: L.A. = T.A. = L.A. + Abase
Formula for L.A. The formula for the lateral area (L.A.) of a regular pyramid or cone is the half product of its slant height s and the perimeter p of its base. L.A. =
Formula for S.A. The formula for the surface area (S.A.) of a regular pyramid or cone is the sum of its lateral area and the area of its base (A). T.A.= L.A.+ Abase
Let’s Try one Find the surface area of a cone with a radius of 10 and a slant height of 13. Click on “Freckle Boy” after you’ve finished the problem.
Here is your Answer... T.A. = L.A. + Abase = + r2 = + r2 = + (10)2 = 408.41 + 314.16 = 722.57 units2
Here is another one! Find the lateral area of a square pyramid with a slant height of 14 and a base edge of 25.
The answer you have selected is incorrect. The correct answer was 700. Don’t worry. . . The little guy has the answer!
Here is your Answer... LA = = = 700 units2
Exit! I hope you’ve enjoyed the show.
