What’s on the Volume and Surface Area of Solids poster
A 5-row table: Solid · Volume · Surface area.
Every one of these uses the base and the height, or the radius.
- Prism — B × h — 2B + perimeter × h
- Cylinder — πr²h — 2πr² + 2πrh
- Pyramid — ⅓Bh — B + ½ × perimeter × slant
- Cone — ⅓πr²h — πr² + πrl
- Sphere — ⁴⁄₃πr³ — 4πr²
Cones and pyramids use the SLANT height for surface area and the perpendicular height for volume.

- Who is the Volume and Surface Area of Solids poster for?
- Volume and Surface Area of Solids is filed under 10th Grade (ages 15–16), so it matches what that year asks a child to remember. It is equally useful to an older student revisiting math, and to the parent or teacher answering the question at the kitchen table.
- When should you use the Volume and Surface Area of Solids poster?
- Check whether the question wants surface area or volume. The units tell you which. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Volume and Surface Area of Solids belongs on the wall where that math work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.
- What other posters go with Volume and Surface Area of Solids?
- Sequences and Series, Circle Theorems and Completing the Square sit alongside Volume and Surface Area of Solids in the 10th Grade set. Printed together they make a wall rather than a single sheet, which is how a reference set actually gets used.Sequences and SeriesCircle TheoremsCompleting the Square
- Is the Volume and Surface Area of Solids poster free to download and print?
- Yes. Volume and Surface Area of Solids downloads as a free PDF with no account, no email and no watermark, like everything else in the 10th Grade set. Print as many copies as you like for a home, a classroom, a library or a tutoring group; reselling the file is the only thing the licence rules out.Read the licence
- What size does the Volume and Surface Area of Solids poster print at?
- Volume and Surface Area of Solids is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Volume and Surface Area of Solids loses nothing.Printing guide
