  1. 1Surface Areas and VolumesWhen solids combine, their exposed surfaces and hidden volumes become a satisfying geometry puzzle.
  2. 2Surface Area of a Combination of SolidsCalculating the surface area of a combination of solids is just 3D geometry's way of asking: "How much wrapping paper do you need for a present that makes no sense?"
  3. 3Volume of a Combination of SolidsCombining a cylinder and a hemisphere sounds like advanced mathematics until you realize you’re just trying to figure out how much actual ice cream fits in the cone.
  4. 4Chapter Summary and PracticeA silo is just a cylinder wearing a conical hat, but missing its height in the formula will cost you half your exam points.
