What this AA SL geometry of 3d shapes worksheet covers

Surface area and volume of 3D solids, angles between lines and planes, and distances inside solids. The questions follow the order of the AA SL syllabus for Topic 3 (Geometry & Trigonometry) and are graded in three bands — routine practice, exam-standard, and the harder multi-step questions that separate a 6 from a 7.

Volume and surface area of prisms, pyramids, cones and spheres
Diagonals of cuboids and pyramids
Angle between a line and a plane, and between two planes
Composite and truncated solids
Exam tip for this topic. Identify the right-angled triangle that contains the required angle and redraw it in 2D before calculating.

How to use it

  1. Do the first band without the AA SL formula booklet, then check which formulas you had to look up — those are the ones to memorise.
  2. Time the second band at roughly 1.2 minutes per mark, the pace of Paper 1 and Paper 2.
  3. Mark the third band against the solutions and rewrite every question you lost marks on from a blank page.
