Use a net to find the lateral area and the total surface area of the cereal box.

1 answer:

7 0

To find the lateral area you will find the area of all 4 faces that are perpendicular to the base.

You will multiply the side by the length (front/back) and the side by the width (sides).

12 x 8 = 96
12 x 2 = 24
120 square inches x 2 = 240 square inches

The lateral area is 240 square inches.

The area of the base is 8 x 2 = 16 square inches.

16 x 2 = 32 square inches

240 square inches + 32 square inches = 272 square inches is the surface area.

The following is an incomplete paragraph proving that the opposite angles of parallelogram ABCD are congruent: Parallelogram ABC

Studentka2010 [4]

General Idea:

The angles which occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others. If the two lines are parallel, the corresponding angles are equal.

The angles that are formed on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the two lines are alternate interior angles. The theorem says that when the lines are parallel, that the alternate interior angles are equal.

Applying the concept:

Angles PBC and BAD are congruent by the Corresponding Angle Theorem.

Angles ABC and BAT are congruent by the Alternate Interior angle Theorem.
