About This Quiz
Composite Surface Area - Quiz

Get ready to think about the outside of 3D shapes! In this quiz, you’ll find surface area for solids made by joining shapes together. You’ll practice counting only the exposed faces, leaving out any sides that are glued or hidden, and include curved surfaces when needed. Clear checklists will help... see moreyou organize each piece. see less

We’ll put your name on your report, certificate, and leaderboard.
2) A cone of radius 6 cm and height 12 cm is placed on top of a cylinder with the same radius and height. Find the approximate combined surface area.
Submit
3) A cube with a side 6 cm has a hemisphere of radius 3 cm on top. Find the total surface area.

Explanation

Cube with a hemisphere on top

Cube side = 6 cm, hemisphere radius = 3 cm.

Surface area = (5 sides of cube × 6 × 6) + (half of sphere area 2 × 3.14 × 3 × 3).

= 180 + 56.6 + top rim = about 244.3.

Explanation: The top cube face is covered, so count only 5 cube faces plus the hemisphere’s curved area.

Submit
4) A cylinder has a radius of 4 cm and a height of 10 cm. A cone with radius 4 cm and height 6 cm is placed on top of the cylinder. Find the total surface area.

Explanation

Cylinder with a cone on top

Radius = 4 cm, cylinder height = 10 cm, cone height = 6 cm.

Surface area = (2 × 3.14 × 4 × 10) + (3.14 × 4 × slant height of cone) + (3.14 × 4 × 4).

Slant height = square root of (4² + 6²) = 7.2.

= (251.2 + 90.4 + 50.2) = 391.8.

Explanation: Add lateral areas of both shapes and the base.

Submit
5) A sphere of radius 5 m is cut in half. Find the surface area of one half (include the base).

Explanation

The surface area of a hemisphere includes the curved surface area and the area of the base. The formula for the surface area of a hemisphere is 2πr² + πr², which simplifies to 3πr². Substituting r = 5 m gives approximately 261.8 m².

Submit
6) A rectangular prism has dimensions 8 cm m 6 cm m 4 cm. On top of it sits a triangular prism with a base of 8 cm m 4 cm and a height of 3 cm. Find the surface area.
Submit
7) A silo is shaped like a cylinder of radius 6 m and height 12 m with a hemisphere of radius 6 m on top. Find the surface area.
Submit
8) A cone (radius 4 cm, height 9 cm) sits on top of a cylinder (radius 4 cm, height 12 cm). Find the total surface area.
Submit
9) A rectangular prism measures 5 cm m 5 cm m 10 cm. A square pyramid with base 5 cm m 5 cm and height 6 cm is placed on top. Find the surface area.
Submit
10) A cylinder of radius 7 cm and height 14 cm is combined with a hemisphere of radius 7 cm. Find the surface area.
Submit
11) A cone of radius 3 cm and height 9 cm is cut from the top of a cylinder of radius 3 cm and height 9 cm. Find the total outside surface area.
Submit
12) A rectangular prism measures 12 cm m 10 cm m 6 cm. A half-cylinder with radius 5 cm and length 10 cm is placed on top. Find the surface area.
Submit
13) A storage bin is a cube of side 8 m with a pyramid on top, base 8 m 8, height 6. Find the surface area.
Submit
14) A dome is made of a cylinder (radius 10 m, height 15 m) with a hemisphere on top. Find the surface area.
Submit
