Key Concepts

Term: Total Surface Area (TSA)

Definition: The sum of all the surfaces of a solid object. For composite solids, it is calculated by adding the curved surface areas of individual solids, excluding any overlapping surfaces.
Term: Curved Surface Area (CSA)

Definition: The area of the curved surface of a solid, excluding the base. For instance, the CSA of a cylinder does not include its circular bases.
Term: Volume

Definition: The amount of three-dimensional space occupied by a substance or an object, commonly measured in cubic units.
Term: Hemisphere

Definition: Half of a sphere, defined by cutting through its center. Often appears in geometry problems related to surface area and volume.
Term: Cone

Definition: A three-dimensional geometric shape that tapers smoothly from a flat base (which is typically circular) to a pointed apex.
