What is the total number of faces on a prism?

Back

A prism has two identical bases and additional rectangular faces connecting the bases. The total number of faces is equal to the number of sides on the base plus two.

What is the relationship between the surface area and volume of a prism?

Back

The surface area measures the total area of the prism's faces, while the volume measures the space inside the prism. They are related but calculated using different formulas.

What is the surface area of a prism with a base area of 20 cm² and a height of 10 cm?

Back

The surface area of the prism can be calculated using the formula: SA = 2 * base area + (perimeter of base * height). If the perimeter is known, substitute the values to find SA.
