What is surface area?

Back

Surface area is the total area that the surface of a three-dimensional object occupies, often described as 'wrapping the outside' of the shape.

How do you calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism?

Back

To calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism, use the formula: Surface Area = 2(lw + lh + wh), where l is length, w is width, and h is height.

How do you calculate the surface area of a cone?

Back

The surface area of a cone can be calculated using the formula: Surface Area = πr(r + l), where r is the radius and l is the slant height.

Front

What is the relationship between surface area and volume?

Back

Surface area and volume are both measures of a three-dimensional object, but surface area measures the extent of the object's surface, while volume measures the space it occupies.
