Surface Area and Volume of Prisms

Front

What is the formula for the surface area of a cylinder?

Back

Surface Area = 2πr(h + r), where r is the radius and h is the height.

Front

What is the difference between surface area and volume?

Back

Surface area measures the total area of the surface of a 3D object, while volume measures the amount of space inside the object.
