Students will extend their knowledge of surface area and nets of rectangular prisms to generalize a formula for the surface area of any prism.

This simulation explores the relationship between the amount of surface area in the small intestine and the rate at which it absorbs food particles into the circulatory system.

College professor Dan Bach offers a review of the calculus concepts of integrals and vectors. Examples and animated graphs are provided.

The students will find the area of each two dimensional figure on a net of a rectangular prism. In groups, students will cut out the net and create a rectangular prism. Groups will then discuss how to find the lateral area and the total...
