Surface Area of Cones and Spheres WORKSHEET

Suitable for Year groups: Year 10, Year 11
GCSE Tier: Higher
Targeting grades: 6-7
Prerequisite knowledge: Area of circles and sectors, Pythagoras' Theorem.
Learning Objective: Calculating the surface area of cones and spheres

Surface Area of Cones and Spheres WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

This worksheet provides a great selection of questions on the surface area of cones, spheres, hemispheres and compound shapes made from cones, hemispheres and cylinders. Learners will need to find the curved surface area and total surface area of cones, the surface area of spheres or the radius if given the surface area. An extension question relates to a square-based pyramid.

All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.

Frequently Asked Questions

Students should be confident with calculating the area of circles and sectors, as these skills form the foundation for finding curved surface areas. They'll also need a solid understanding of Pythagoras' Theorem, which is essential for determining the slant height of cones when working with surface area calculations.
