Question 1: Area of an L-shaped figure (3 points)
The figure shows a classroom floor plan. Find its area.
Question 2: Area of a pennant (2 points)
Find the area of the figure, a rectangle topped by a triangle.
Question 3: Volumes of prisms (3 points)
- Find the volume of a rectangular prism that is \(9\text{ in}\) long, \(6\text{ in}\) wide, and \(4\text{ in}\) tall. (1 point)
- Find the volume of the triangular prism shown. (2 points)
Question 4: Surface area of a box (2 points)
A closed box is \(10\text{ cm}\) long, \(6\text{ cm}\) wide, and \(4\text{ cm}\) tall. Find its surface area.
Question 5: Surface area of a triangular prism (3 points)
The bases of the prism are right triangles. Find its surface area.
Question 6: Missing height (2 points)
A storage bin is a rectangular prism with a base \(12\text{ ft}\) by \(5\text{ ft}\). Its volume is \(360\text{ ft}^3\). Find its height.
Question 7: Volume of a composite solid (3 points)
A solid has an L-shaped front face and a depth of \(5\text{ cm}\). Find its volume.
Question 8: Wrapping a gift (2 points)
Diego wraps a gift box that is \(14\text{ in}\) long, \(10\text{ in}\) wide, and \(6\text{ in}\) tall. A sheet of wrapping paper has an area of \(600\text{ in}^2\). Is one sheet enough to cover the whole box with no overlap? Explain.
