Tetrahedron Surface Area

This is an example of a tetrahedron that can be created for the "Wrap It Up" 6th Grade geometry lesson extension.

The tetrahedron consists of four pieces. All edge lengths are 1.782 inches. Total surface area of the whole tetrahedron is 5.5 square inches. This is the same as the Box Surface Area

The tetrahedron can be held together by tape, rubber bands, or glue. The maker recommends tape.
