pyramids
• A regular pyramid has a regular polygon for a base and its height meets the base at its center. The altitude or height of a pyramid is the perpendicular distance between the base and the vertex.
• The slant height of a regular pyramid is the altitude of any lateral face.

Ex. 1: Finding the Area of a Lateral Face• Architecture. The lateral faces of the
Pyramid Arena in Memphis, Tennessee, are covered with steel panels. Use the diagram of the arena to find the area of each lateral face of this regular pyramid.

Hexagonal Pyramids
• A regular hexagonal pyramid and its net are shown at the right. Let b represent the length of a base edge, and let l represent the slant height of the pyramid. The area of each lateral face is 1/2bl and the perimeter of the base is P = 6b. So the surface area is as follows:
![Page 7: Surface Area of Pyramids and Cones Geometry. pyramids A regular pyramid has a regular polygon for a base and its height meets the base at its center.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649eab5503460f94bb113b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Hexagonal pyramid
S = (Area of base) + 6(Area of lateral face)
S = B + 6( ½ bl)
S = B + (6b)l
S = B + Pl
Substitute
Rewrite 6( ½ bl) as ½ (6b)l.
Substitute P for 6b
Surface Area of a Regular Pyramid
The surface area S of a regular pyramid is:
S = B + ½ Pl, where B is the area of the base, P is the perimeter of the base, and l is the slant height.

Ex. 2: Finding the surface area of a pyramid• To find the surface area
of the regular pyramid shown, start by finding the area of the base.
• Use the formula for the area of a regular polygon,
½ (apothem)(perimeter). A diagram of the base is shown to the right.

Ex. 2: Finding the surface area of a pyramidAfter substituting, the
area of the base is ½ (3 )(6• 6), or
54 square meters.

Surface area
• Now you can find the surface area by using 54 for the area of the base, B.3

Finding the Surface Area of a Cone• The altitude, or height, is the
perpendicular distance between the vertex and the base. In a right cone, the height meets the base at its center and the slant height is the distance between the vertex and a point on the base edge.
![Page 12: Surface Area of Pyramids and Cones Geometry. pyramids A regular pyramid has a regular polygon for a base and its height meets the base at its center.](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649eab5503460f94bb113b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Finding the Surface Area of a Cone• The lateral surface of a
cone consists of all segments that connect the vertex with points on the base edge. When you cut along the slant height and like the cone flat, you get the net shown at the right. In the net, the circular base has an area of r2 and the lateral surface area is the sector of a circle.

More on cones . . . • You can find the area of this sector by
using a proportion, as shown below.
Area of sectorArea of circle =
Arc lengthCircumference Set up proportion
Area of sectorl2 =
2r
2lSubstitute
Area of sector = l2 •2r
2lMultiply each side by l2
Area of sector = rl Simplify
The surface area of a cone is the sum of the base area and the lateral area, rl.

Theorem
• Surface Area of a Right Cone
The surface area S of a right cone is S = r2 + rl, where r is the radius of the base and l is the slant height

Ex. 3: Finding the surface area of a cone• To find the surface area
of the right cone shown, use the formula for the surface area.
S = r2 + rl Write formula
S = 42 + (4)(6) Substitute
S = 16 + 24 Simplify
S = 40 SimplifyThe surface area is 40 square inches or about 125.7 square inches.
