7th Grade Area, Volume and Surface Area Worksheet (PDF)
This area volume surface area worksheet for 7th Grade covers area, volume and surface area (Common Core 7.G.B.6), with a free PDF to print.
These 20 problems practice the area of triangles, quadrilaterals, and polygons, and the volume and surface area of right prisms, including composite figures (Common Core 7.G.B.6). They start with the basic skill, move to different kinds of numbers and multistep work, and end with six word problems set in everyday situations such as shopping, sports, and travel.
Show every step of your work, and use the answer key only after you have tried each problem.

Exercise 20 – Tent fabric
A tent is a triangular prism. The triangular end has a base of 6 ft and a height of 4 ft, with two slanted sides of 5 ft. The tent is 8 ft long. Find the volume, and the fabric needed for the two ends and the two slanted sides (no floor).
Key facts behind this area volume surface area worksheet
- Triangle: \(A = \frac{1}{2} bh\). Trapezoid: \(A = \frac{1}{2} (b_1 + b_2) h\).
- Composite polygon: add the areas of simple pieces or subtract a missing piece.
- Volume of a prism: \(V = Bh\) (base area times height).
- Surface area of a prism: add the areas of all faces from the net.
- Area uses square units; volume uses cubic units.
