What do you need to remember to do when finding the surface area of composite figures
When finding the surface area of composite figures, you need to remember to:
1. Break down the figure into simpler shapes that you can find the surface area of easily.
2. Find the surface area of each simpler shape.
3. Add up the surface areas of all the simpler shapes to get the total surface area of the composite figure.
4. Make sure to include any areas that may have been omitted or added mistakenly.
5. Check your work carefully to ensure that all calculations are correct.
