- Check out the Math is Fun website on Solid Geometry. Start by exploring Three Dimensions by clicking on the following links on the website “dimensions” and “Common 3D Shapes”. You do not need to explore surface area and volume for the solids yet. We will do that later. Just learn the names and interesting facts for each solid.
- Polyhedra and Non-Polyhedra
- Return to the homepage Solid Geometry
- Do you know the difference between a Polyhedra and Non-Polyhedra? Click on the “Polyhedra” link to see the different types of Polyhedra. Be sure to explore the “platonic solids, prisms, and pyramid” links and give the 12 questions a try.
- Back to the homepage Solid Geometry. Explore the different types of Non-Polyhedra: “Sphere”, “Cylinder”, and “Cone” by clicking on each link.
- If you want to explore a challenging concept, check out the “Cone vs Sphere vs Cylinder” bullet at the bottom of the home page.
- For fun check out the Animated Polyhedron Models
- For additional practice on nets of geometric solids, click on the link, Exploring Nets of geometric solids. Be sure to do all 8 sections by clicking on the next tab at the bottom of the page. Be sure to click on the correct box and drag the sliders in the Geometric Solids 1, 2, and 3 sections. There are multiple questions for the remaining sections, so be sure to click the “Next Task” button at the top to complete all problems.
- Now it is time to practice the skills we have learned so far: Quizizz Practice, and Quizizz Practice 2.
- Surface Area
You will be starting a unit over Surface Area and Volume (we will study Volume next week). Please Print out or open in a seperate tab the Formula Sheet as a reference. You will see many variations of these formulas as you study the material. You can use nets or the formulas to do many of the problems. Choose whatever works best for you.
What is Surface Area? Check out Animation of Surface Area
- Prisms
- Check out the 3 examples on Surface Area of a Rectangular Prism.
- Watch the video Surface Area of Triangular Prisms
