Lesson Summary

To calculate the surface area of a composite figure, determine the surface area of each prism separately,
and add them together. From the sum, subtract the area of the sections that were covered by another
prism.

To calculate the surface area with a missing section, find the total surface area of the whole figure. From
the total surface area, subtract the area of the missing parts. Then, add the area of the lateral faces of the
cutout prism.
Problem Set
Determine the surface area of each figure.
1.
In addition to the calculation of the surface area, describe how you found the surface area.
