Perimeter
#1 What is the perimeter of a rectangle with sides measuring 20 inches and 16 inches? (20 + 20 + 16 + 16) or (40 + 32) = 72 inches
#2 What is the perimeter of an equilateral triangle with each side measuring 9.5 ft? (9.5 x 3) or (9.5 + 9.5 + 9.5) = 28.5 ft
#3 What is the perimeter of a square with each side measuring 7 centimeters? (7 x 4) or (7 + 7 + 7 + 7) = 28 centimeters
#4 What is the perimeter of a pentagon with each side measuring 17.5 m? (17.5 x 5) = 87.5 meters
#5 What is the perimeter of an isosceles triangle with 2 sides measuring 8 cm and the other side measuring 10 cm? (8 + 8 + 10) = 26 cm
Volume and Surface Area
#1 What is the volume of a cube that measures 2 feet on each side? 8 feet cubed
#2 What is the volume of a rectangular prism that is 2 mm long, 4 mm wide, and 3 mm tall? 24 mm cubed
#3 What is the surface area of a cube that measures 3 inches on each side? 54 inches squared
#4 What is the surface area of a rectangular prism with the following measurements: base-4 cm, height-2 cm, width-7 cm? 100 cm squared
#5 If the volume of a rectangular prism is 12 feet cubed and 2 of its edges are 6 feet and 1 foot, what's the measure of the third edge? 2 feet (2 x 6 x 1 = 12)
Volume - Skip
#1 What is the volume of a rectangular prism that has a length of 5 m, a height of 3.5 m, and a width of 10.6 m? (5 x 3.5 x 10.6) = 185.5 meters cubed
#2 Find the volume of this rectangular prism: l=6 in. w=4 in. h=7 in. (6 x 4 x 7) = 168 inches cubed
#3 What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 6 feet, a height of 2.5 feet, and a width of 7 feet? (6 x 2.5 x 7) = 105 feet cubed
#4 Find the volume of this pyramid: l=9 in. w=4 in. h=8 in. (1/3 x 9 x 4 x 8) = 96 inches cubed
#5 Find the volume of this cube: l=3.2 ft (3.2 x 3.2 x 3.2) = 32.768 feet cubed
3D Shapes
#1 In a guessing game, Alice gives her friend a clue: Which 3D shape has 1 circular base? Her friend Emily guesses a circular prism. Is she right? Why or why not? Emily is not right because a circular prism has 2 round ends; a cone has 1 round base.
#2 If you draw a net for a cube, how many faces will it have? 6 faces
#3 If a rectangular pyramid has 5 faces and 8 edges, how many vertices does it have? 5 vertices
#4 A figure has 4 faces, 4 vertices, and 6 edges. What 3-dimensional shape is it? (triangular prism, rectangular prism, triangular pyramid, or rectangular pyramid) triangular pyramid
#5 What 3D shape is made from a net that has 4 triangles and a rectangle: triangular prism, triangular pyramid, rectangular pyramid, or square pyramid ? rectangular pyramid because the base is 1 rectangle and the other faces are 4 traingles
Word Problem Grab Bag
#1 How many edges does a triangular prism have? 9 edges
#2 Wat 3D shapes has no faces, edges, or vertices? sphere
#3 How many edges, vertices, and faces does a octagonal pyramid have? 16 edges, 9 vertices, 9 faces
#4 How do you determine the type of prism or pyramid a 3D shape is? You can name it by it's bases (triangular, hexagonal, etc.)
#5 If the volume of a cube is 27 inches squared and 2 sides are 3 inches each, what is the dimension of the third side? 3 inches because all the sides of a cube are the same; also, 3 x 3 x 3 = 270) = 100 feet
