Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 6.88 Use Nets to Find Surface Area of Pyramids skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

While comparing net diagrams, a pyramid net has a pentagonal base labeled 88 cm². The triangular side faces are already labeled with areas 21 cm², 24.5 cm², 19 cm², 28 cm², 22 cm². Which calculation should be used to find the pyramid's surface area?

A88 + 88 + 21 + 24.5 + 19 + 28 + 22 = 290.5 cm²

B21 + 24.5 + 19 + 28 + 22 = 114.5 cm²

C88 + 21 + 24.5 + 19 + 28 = 180.5 cm²

D88 + 21 + 24.5 + 19 + 28 + 22 = 202.5 cm²

Solution & Explanation:The net gives each face area, so add the base area and every triangular side-face area: 88 + 21 + 24.5 + 19 + 28 + 22 = 202.5 cm².

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

For a puzzle card, a pyramid net has an octagonal base labeled 160 ft². The triangular side faces are already labeled with areas 18 ft², 22 ft², 24 ft², 20 ft², 27 ft², 25 ft², 21 ft², 19 ft². Which option matches the area of all faces in the net?

A160 + 18 + 22 + 24 + 20 + 27 + 25 + 21 = 317 ft²

B160 + 160 + 18 + 22 + 24 + 20 + 27 + 25 + 21 + 19 = 496 ft²

C160 + 18 + 22 + 24 + 20 + 27 + 25 + 21 + 19 = 336 ft²

D18 + 22 + 24 + 20 + 27 + 25 + 21 + 19 = 176 ft²

Solution & Explanation:The net gives each face area, so add the base area and every triangular side-face area: 160 + 18 + 22 + 24 + 20 + 27 + 25 + 21 + 19 = 336 ft².

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

During an after-school tutoring session, a pyramid net has a quadrilateral base labeled 62 in². The triangular side faces are already labeled with areas 19.5 in², 17 in², 23 in², 15.5 in². Which choice shows the correct surface-area calculation for the pyramid?

A19.5 + 17 + 23 + 15.5 = 75 in²

B62 + 19.5 + 17 + 23 + 15.5 = 137 in²

C62 + 19.5 + 17 + 23 = 121.5 in²

D62 + 62 + 19.5 + 17 + 23 + 15.5 = 199 in²

Solution & Explanation:The net gives each face area, so add the base area and every triangular side-face area: 62 + 19.5 + 17 + 23 + 15.5 = 137 in².
