Find the Surface Area…
Find the surface area of a cylinder with a diameter of 10cm and a height of 15cm.
Pyramid
Pyramid – A three dimensional figure in which one face, the base, is any polygon and the lateral faces are triangles that meet at a common vertex.
vertex
The altitude of a pyramid is the perpendicular segment from the vertex to the plane of the base.
The length of the altitude is called the height.

Pyramid
Regular Pyramid – a pyramid whose base is a regular polygon.
Slant Height – the length of the altitude of the lateral face.

SURFACE AREA OF CONESSection 11.3b
A cone has a circular base and a vertex that is not in the same plane as a base.
In a right cone, the height meets the base at its center.
The height of a cone is the perpendicular distance between the vertex and the base.
The slant height of a cone is the distance between the vertex and a point on the base edge.

Lateral Surface
The vertex is directly above the center of the circle.
