Surface area of compound shapes. | Shapes worksheets, Area ... - Free Printable

To solve the problem of finding the surface area of each compound shape, we need to break down each figure into its component shapes and calculate their individual surface areas. Then, we sum up the relevant areas while ensuring no overlapping or hidden surfaces are double-counted. Let's go through each figure step by step.

1) Compound Shape: Rectangular Prism with Triangular Prisms on Top

#### Description:
- The base is a rectangular prism.
- Two triangular prisms are attached to the top faces of the rectangular prism.

#### Dimensions:
- Rectangular prism: \( 19 \, \text{ft} \times 10 \, \text{ft} \times 17 \, \text{ft} \)
- Triangular prisms: Attached to the top faces of the rectangular prism.

#### Steps:
1. Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism (excluding the top faces):
- Bottom face: \( 19 \times 10 = 190 \, \text{ft}^2 \)
- Front and back faces: \( 2 \times (19 \times 17) = 2 \times 323 = 646 \, \text{ft}^2 \)
- Left and right faces: \( 2 \times (10 \times 17) = 2 \times 170 = 340 \, \text{ft}^2 \)
- Total for the rectangular prism (excluding top faces): \( 190 + 646 + 340 = 1176 \, \text{ft}^2 \)

2. Surface Area of the Triangular Prisms:
- Each triangular prism has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces.
- Triangular face area: \( \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 17 = 85 \, \text{ft}^2 \)
- There are two triangular prisms, so total triangular face area: \( 2 \times 85 = 170 \, \text{ft}^2 \)
- Rectangular face areas:
- Two vertical rectangular faces per prism: \( 2 \times (17 \times 17) = 2 \times 289 = 578 \, \text{ft}^2 \)
- One horizontal rectangular face per prism: \( 19 \times 17 = 323 \, \text{ft}^2 \)
- Total for one triangular prism: \( 578 + 323 = 901 \, \text{ft}^2 \)
- Total for two triangular prisms: \( 2 \times 901 = 1802 \, \text{ft}^2 \)

3. Total Surface Area:
- Combine the rectangular prism and triangular prisms: \( 1176 + 1802 = 2978 \, \text{ft}^2 \)

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{2978}

2. Surface Area of the Cone (excluding the base):
- Lateral surface area: \( \pi r l = 3.14 \times 5 \times 13 = 204.1 \, \text{yd}^2 \)

3. Total Surface Area:

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{659.4}

#### Steps:
1. Surface Area of the Cube (excluding the top face):
- Total surface area of the cube: \( 6s^2 = 6 \times 6^2 = 216 \, \text{yd}^2 \)
- Exclude the top face: \( 216 - 6^2 = 216 - 36 = 180 \, \text{yd}^2 \)

2. Surface Area of the Hemisphere:
- Curved surface area of the hemisphere: \( 2\pi r^2 = 2 \times 3.14 \times 3^2 = 56.52 \, \text{yd}^2 \)

3. Total Surface Area:
- Combine the cube and hemisphere: \( 180 + 56.52 = 236.52 \, \text{yd}^2 \)

#### Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{236.52}
\]

4) Compound Shape: Stacked Cubes

#### Description:
- Two cubes are stacked on top of each other.

#### Dimensions:
- Bottom cube: Side length \( s_1 = 15 \, \text{in} \)
- Top cube: Side length \( s_2 = 6 \, \text{in} \)

#### Steps:
1. Surface Area of the Bottom Cube:
- Total surface area: \( 6s_1^2 = 6 \times 15^2 = 1350 \, \text{in}^2 \)
- Exclude the top face: \( 1350 - 15^2 = 1350 - 225 = 1125 \, \text{in}^2 \)

2. Surface Area of the Top Cube:
- Total surface area: \( 6s_2^2 = 6 \times 6^2 = 216 \, \text{in}^2 \)
- Exclude the bottom face: \( 216 - 6^2 = 216 - 36 = 180 \, \text{in}^2 \)

3. Total Surface Area:
- Combine the two cubes: \( 1125 + 180 = 1305 \, \text{in}^2 \)

2. Surface Area of the Triangular Pyramid:
- Base area (triangle): Use Heron's formula.
- Semi-perimeter \( s = \frac{17 + 15 + 11}{2} = 21.5 \, \text{in} \)
- Area \( A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} = \sqrt{21.5(21.5-17)(21.5-15)(21.5-11)} \)
- \( A = \sqrt{21.5 \times 4.5 \times 6.5 \times 10.5} \approx 84.375 \, \text{in}^2 \)
- Lateral face areas:
- Three triangular faces: Calculate using the slant heights or given dimensions (not provided, assume direct calculation).
