Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Surface Area / Volume Bingo Card
It looks like you've uploaded a grid-based math worksheet that includes various 3D shapes (prisms and pyramids), volume and surface area problems, and questions about formulas. The grid is labeled with S for "Shape" and V for "Volume," alternating across columns.

Let’s go through the grid systematically, solve each problem, and explain the process. I'll break it down row by row.

---

🔷 Row 1



#### Cell 1 (S): Triangular Pyramid (Tetrahedron)
- Dimensions: Base triangle with sides 4 mm, 4 mm, and height 12 mm.
- This appears to be a triangular pyramid, but we need more info to find volume. However, since it's labeled as "S", just identifying the shape is likely sufficient here.

Answer: It's a triangular pyramid (tetrahedron).

---

#### Cell 2 (V): Triangular Prism
- Given:
- Triangle base: 4 in, height = 2 in
- Prism length = 5 in
- Volume of a Triangular Prism = Area of triangular base × Length

$$
\text{Area of triangle} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 2 = 4 \text{ in}^2
$$
$$
\text{Volume} = 4 \times 5 = 20 \text{ in}^3
$$

Answer: Volume = 20 in³

---

#### Cell 3 (S): Question
> How do you find Volume of a Triangular Prism?

Answer:
Use the formula:
$$
V = \left(\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h_{\text{triangle}}\right) \times L
$$
Where:
- $b$ = base of triangle
- $h_{\text{triangle}}$ = height of triangle
- $L$ = length (or depth) of the prism

---

#### Cell 4 (V): Rectangular Prism
- Given: Volume = 21 m³, width = 2 m, depth = 1.5 m
- Find missing dimension (height? length?)

$$
V = L \times W \times H
$$
We know:
- $V = 21$
- $W = 2$
- $H = 1.5$

So:
$$
21 = L \times 2 \times 1.5 = L \times 3 \Rightarrow L = \frac{21}{3} = 7 \text{ m}
$$

Answer: Missing length = 7 m

---

#### Cell 5 (S): Question
> What is the process of finding Surface Area?

Answer:
To find surface area of a 3D shape:
1. Identify all faces.
2. Calculate area of each face.
3. Add them up.

For prisms:
- SA = 2 × (Base Area) + (Perimeter of Base) × Height

---

🔷 Row 2



#### Cell 1 (S): Cube
- All sides = 4 yd
- This is a cube.

Answer: Cube with side 4 yd.

---

#### Cell 2 (V): Rectangular Prism
- Given: Volume = 10 cm³, dimensions: 2.5 cm × 2 cm × ? cm
- Solve for missing dimension:

$$
V = L \times W \times H \Rightarrow 10 = 2.5 \times 2 \times H = 5H \Rightarrow H = 2 \text{ cm}
$$

Answer: Missing height = 2 cm

---

#### Cell 3 (S): Triangular Prism
- Base triangle: 5 in, 5 in, height 10 in?
Wait — actually, this looks like an isosceles triangular prism with base = 5 in, height = 10 in? But the diagram shows two 5 in sides and a 10 in height.

But wait: The base of the triangle is shown as 5 in, and height from apex to base is 10 in?

Actually, the image shows a triangle with base 5 in and height 10 in, and the prism extends along the length of the triangle.

Wait — no, the prism has a rectangular side of 10 in. So it's a triangular prism with triangular base of base 5 in, height 10 in, and length 10 in?

Wait — looking carefully: the triangle base has two equal sides of 5 in, and the height of the prism is 10 in? No — the label says 10 in on the side.

Actually, it seems the length of the prism is 10 in, and the base triangle has a base of 5 in and height (from triangle) not given.

But no height is marked on the triangle. Wait — maybe the triangle has a base of 5 in and the height of the triangle is not labeled?

This is ambiguous.

Wait — perhaps the triangle is equilateral? Or is the 10 in the height of the triangle?

No — the 10 in is vertical, extending from the base triangle upward — so that's the height of the prism.

But then what is the height of the triangle?

The triangle has a base of 5 in, but no height labeled.

Wait — the image might have a typo or mislabeling.

Alternatively, if the triangle has two 5-in sides and the base is unknown, but the height of the prism is 10 in, we can't compute volume without the triangle's height.

Wait — look again: the triangle has a base of 5 in, and the height of the triangle is not labeled.

So unless we assume something, we can't compute volume.

But this cell is under S, so maybe it's just asking to identify the shape.

Answer: Triangular prism with triangular base of 5 in base, and prism length 10 in.

But we can’t compute volume without the triangle’s height.

Wait — perhaps the height of the triangle is implied? Not enough data.

Maybe skip for now.

---

#### Cell 4 (V): Triangular Prism
- Given: L=3, W=4, H=5 → but these are not standard terms.

Wait — this is a triangular prism, but labeled with L, W, H like rectangular prism.

Possibly a mistake.

But it says: "Volume: Triangular Prism L=3 W=4 H=5"

But for a triangular prism, L could be length, but W and H don’t make sense unless they're base dimensions.

Assume:
- Base triangle: base = 4, height = 5
- Length of prism = 3

Then:
$$
\text{Area of base} = \frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 5 = 10
$$
$$
V = 10 \times 3 = 30 \text{ units}^3
$$

Answer: Volume = 30 units³

---

#### Cell 5 (S): Question
> How do you find Volume of a Rectangular Prism?

Answer:
$$
V = \text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Height}
$$

Or: $ V = L \times W \times H $

---

🔷 Row 3



#### Cell 1 (S): Rectangular Prism
- Dimensions: 12 in × 12 in × 6 in
- This is a rectangular prism.

Answer: Rectangular prism with dimensions 12×12×6 in.

---

#### Cell 2 (V): Triangular Prism (Large)
- Base: Triangle with base 42 m, height 20 m
- Other sides: 29 m, 29 m (so isosceles)
- Prism length = 16 m

Volume:
$$
\text{Base area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 42 \times 20 = 420 \text{ m}^2
$$
$$
V = 420 \times 16 = 6,720 \text{ m}^3
$$

Answer: Volume = 6,720 m³

---

#### Cell 3 (S): Cube
- All sides = 2 in
- Cube.

Answer: Cube with side 2 in.

---

#### Cell 4 (V): Rectangular Prism
- Given: L=3, W=6, H=5
- $ V = 3 \times 6 \times 5 = 90 \text{ units}^3 $

Answer: Volume = 90 units³

---

#### Cell 5 (S): Oblique Rectangular Prism
- Dimensions: 15 ft, 8 ft, 20 ft, 17 ft
- Appears to be a slanted prism, but volume still same as right prism.

But we need to know which is length, width, height.

Looks like:
- Base: 8 ft × 15 ft
- Height (perpendicular distance between bases): 20 ft? Or 17 ft?

Wait — the slant edge is 17 ft, but the height of the prism is not necessarily 17 ft.

But for volume, we need perpendicular height.

If it's an oblique prism, volume is still:
$$
V = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height (perpendicular)}
$$

But the 17 ft is the slant height, not perpendicular.

Wait — the diagram shows a parallelogram face with 17 ft side, and 15 ft, 8 ft.

But if the base is 8 ft × 15 ft, and the height (vertical) is 20 ft, then:

Wait — the label says "17 ft" on the slant edge, and "20 ft" on the other side.

Actually, the figure shows:
- A rectangle with one side 15 ft, another 8 ft
- Then a slant of 17 ft
- And a vertical height of 20 ft?

Wait — no. The 20 ft is likely the length of the prism.

Wait — let’s interpret:

It's a rectangular prism tilted, with:
- Base: 8 ft × 15 ft
- Height of prism: 20 ft (the distance between bases)
- Slant edge = 17 ft (but not needed)

So volume:
$$
V = 8 \times 15 \times 20 = 2,400 \text{ ft}^3
$$

Answer: Volume = 2,400 ft³

---

🔷 Row 4



#### Cell 1 (S): Triangular Prism
- Base triangle: base = 12 in, height = 16 in
- Prism length = 20 in

Volume:
$$
\text{Base area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 16 = 96 \text{ in}^2
$$
$$
V = 96 \times 20 = 1,920 \text{ in}^3
$$

Answer: Volume = 1,920 in³

---

#### Cell 2 (V): Rectangular Prism
- Dimensions: 16 in × 9½ in × 4 in
- $ V = 16 \times 9.5 \times 4 $

First: $ 16 \times 9.5 = 152 $, then $ 152 \times 4 = 608 $

Answer: Volume = 608 in³

---

#### Cell 3 (S): Square Pyramid
- Base: 6 in × 6 in
- Height = 5 in
- This is a square pyramid.

Volume of pyramid:
$$
V = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
$$
$$
= \frac{1}{3} \times (6 \times 6) \times 5 = \frac{1}{3} \times 36 \times 5 = 60 \text{ in}^3
$$

Answer: Volume = 60 in³

---

#### Cell 4 (V): Composite Shape
- Bottom: Rectangle 12 cm × 10 cm × 8 cm
- Top: Triangle 12 cm base, 11 cm height

Wait — this is a composite solid: a rectangular prism with a triangular prism on top?

But the top is a triangle with height 11 cm, base 12 cm, and the rectangle is 12 cm wide.

So:
- Volume of rectangular part: $ 12 \times 10 \times 8 = 960 \text{ cm}^3 $
- Volume of triangular prism on top: base area = $ \frac{1}{2} \times 12 \times 11 = 66 \text{ cm}^2 $, but we need length.

Wait — the triangle is attached to the rectangle. The height of the triangle is 11 cm, but what is the depth (length) of the triangular prism?

Looking at the figure: the rectangle has depth 10 cm, and the triangle is on top, so likely the length of the triangular prism is also 10 cm.

So:
- Triangular prism volume: $ 66 \times 10 = 660 \text{ cm}^3 $

Total volume: $ 960 + 660 = 1,620 \text{ cm}^3 $

Answer: Total volume = 1,620 cm³

---

#### Cell 5 (S): Cube
- Side = 3 ft
- Cube.

Answer: Cube with side 3 ft.

---

🔷 Row 5



#### Cell 1 (S): Rectangular Prism
- Dimensions: 12 cm × 3 cm × 5 cm
- Volume:
$$
V = 12 \times 3 \times 5 = 180 \text{ cm}^3
$$

Answer: Volume = 180 cm³

---

#### Cell 2 (V): Triangular Prism
- Given: L=6, W=5, H=9
- Assume: base triangle has base = 5, height = 9, length = 6
- Area of triangle: $ \frac{1}{2} \times 5 \times 9 = 22.5 $
- Volume: $ 22.5 \times 6 = 135 \text{ units}^3 $

Answer: Volume = 135 units³

---

#### Cell 3 (S): Octahedron-like shape
- Looks like two square pyramids joined at base.
- But labeled with "6 in" on edges.

Wait — it has a central square and four triangles on top and bottom.

Actually, it's a square bipyramid or octahedron.

But no volume asked. Just shape.

Answer: Square bipyramid (octahedron)

---

#### Cell 4 (V): Rectangular Prism
- Dimensions: 1.5 in × 3 in × 2 in
- $ V = 1.5 \times 3 \times 2 = 9 \text{ in}^3 $

Answer: Volume = 9 in³

---

#### Cell 5 (S): Triangular Pyramid (Tetrahedron)
- Base: equilateral triangle with side 4 mm
- Height = 12 mm
- Volume of pyramid:
$$
V = \frac{1}{3} \times \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
$$

First, base area of equilateral triangle:
$$
A = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} \times s^2 = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} \times 16 = 4\sqrt{3} \approx 6.928 \text{ mm}^2
$$

Then:
$$
V = \frac{1}{3} \times 4\sqrt{3} \times 12 = 16\sqrt{3} \approx 27.71 \text{ mm}^3
$$

But maybe exact form is expected.

Answer: Volume = $ 16\sqrt{3} \text{ mm}^3 $ or approximately 27.71 mm³
