E5.4.1 Carry out calculations and solve problems involving the surface area
Carry out calculations and solve problems involving the surface area and volume of a: • cuboid • prism • cylinder • sphere • pyramid • cone. Answers may be asked for in terms of π. The following formulas are given in the List of formulas: • curved surface area of a cylinder • curved surface area of a cone • surface area of a sphere • volume of a prism • volume of a pyramid • volume of a cylinder • volume of a cone • volume of a sphere. The term prism refers to any solid with a uniform cross-section, e.g. a cylindrical sector.
