    1. 12.3 Surface Area of Pyramids and Cones Geometry Mrs. Spitz Spring 2006

    2. Objectives/Assignment Find the surface area of a pyramid. Find the surface area of a cone. Assignment: WS 12.3A

    3. Finding the surface area of a pyramid A pyramid is a polyhedron in which the base is a polygon and the lateral faces are triangles with a common vertex. The intersection of two lateral faces is a lateral edge. The intersection of the base and a lateral face is a base edge. The altitude or height of a pyramid is the perpendicular distance between the base and the vertex.

    4. More on pyramids A regular pyramid has a regular polygon for a base and its height meets the base at its center. The slant height of a regular pyramid is the altitude of any lateral face. A nonregular pyramid does not have a slant height.

    5. Pyramid Arena

    6. Ex. 1: Finding the Area of a Lateral Face Architecture. The lateral faces of the Pyramid Arena in Memphis, Tennessee, are covered with steal panels. Use the diagram of the arena to find the area of each lateral face of this regular pyramid.

    8. Hexagonal Pyramids A regular hexagonal pyramid and its net are shown at the right. Let b represent the length of a base edge, and let l represent the slant height of the pyramid. The area of each lateral face is 1/2bl and the perimeter of the base if P = 6b. So the surface area is as follows:

    9. Hexagonal pyramid

    10. Ex. 2: Finding the surface area of a pyramid To find the surface area of the regular pyramid shown, start by finding the area of the base. Use the formula for the area of a regular polygon, ½ (apothem)(perimeter). A diagram of the base is shown to the right.

    11. Ex. 2: Finding the surface area of a pyramid After substituting, the area of the base is ½ (3 )(6• 6), or square meters.

    12. Surface area Now you can find the surface area by using 54 for the area of the base, B.

    13. Finding the Surface Area of a Cone A circular cone, or cone, has a circular base and a vertex that is NOT in the same plane as the base. The altitude, or height, is the perpendicular distance between the vertex and the base. In a right cone, the height meets the base at its center and the slant height is the distance between the vertex and a point on the base edge.

    14. Finding the Surface Area of a Cone The lateral surface of a cone consists of all segments that connect the vertex with points on the base edge. When you cut along the slant height and like the cone flat, you get the net shown at the right. In the net, the circular base has an area of ?r2 and the lateral surface area is the sector of a circle.

    15. More on cones . . . You can find the area of this sector by using a proportion, as shown below.

    16. Theorem Surface Area of a Right Cone The surface area S of a right cone is S = ?r2 + ?rl, where r is the radius of the base and l is the slant height

    17. Ex. 3: Finding the surface area of a cone To find the surface area of the right cone shown, use the formula for the surface area.

    18. Upcoming There is a quiz after 12.3. There are no other quizzes or tests for Chapter 12 Review for final exam. Final Exams: Scheduled for Wednesday, May 24. You must take and pass the final exam to pass the course! Book return: You will turn in books/CD’s this date. No book returned = F for semester! Book is $75 to replace. Absences: More than 10 in a semester from January 9 to May 26, and I will fail you. Tardies count!!!
