This worksheet focuses on calculating the surface area of cuboids.
Section A introduces the idea of surface area using nets of cuboids. Students are guided to calculate the surface area step-by-step by identifying and calculating the areas of individual faces. They then use these calculations to determine the total surface area.
Section B requires students to identify the areas of specific faces of given cuboids and use their answers to compute the total surface area.
Section C expands on the earlier sections by presenting a variety of cuboids and requiring students to calculate the surface area directly. It includes a mix of dimensions to challenge their ability to apply the formula accurately across different scenarios.
Section D increases complexity with problem solving questions, such as identifying and correcting errors in surface area calculations, and solving for unknown dimensions when given partial information.
