Composite Figure Quest

Worksheet Description

This worksheet involves finding the surface area of composite figures, which are shapes made up of two or more simple geometric figures. Students will identify the individual components of each composite figure, calculate the surface area of each part, and then combine these areas to find the total surface area. The problems are varied to provide ample practice with different types of shapes, helping students reinforce their geometric skills.

The main math skill targeted in this worksheet is the calculation of surface area for composite figures. Students will practice breaking down complex shapes into simpler ones, calculating the surface area of each part, and then summing these areas. This activity helps students improve their problem-solving abilities and their proficiency in using geometric concepts. By working through these exercises, students will gain confidence in handling more complex geometric problems and develop a stronger grasp of geometry.
