Chapter: Geometry And Trigonometry
By the end of this lesson, you should be able to:
- Calculate the perimeter and area of common plane figures.
- Apply formulas to find the surface area and volume of three-dimensional solids.
- Solve problems involving prisms, cylinders, cones, pyramids, and spheres.
- Calculate the area of composite figures.
- Apply geometry formulas to solve Digital SAT-style word problems.
Geometry questions on the Digital SAT often require students to apply formulas to solve problems involving two-dimensional and three-dimensional figures. Rather than simply memorizing formulas, you should understand what each measurement represents and know when to apply it. This lesson covers perimeter, area, surface area, volume, and composite figures.
Area Formulas
Area is the amount of space enclosed within a two-dimensional figure. It is measured in square units, such as square centimeters (cm^{2}), square meters (m^{2}), or square inches (in^{2}).
