LESSON 2: Surface Area of Rectangular Prism

Definition: The total surface area of a 3-D object is a measure of the total amount of area that covers all of its surfaces.


Units : Square centimeters (cm²), Square meters (m²)

LESSON 2: VOLUME OF RECTANGULAR PRISM

Definition: The volume of a 3-D object is a measure of the amount of space it takes up. Here are the most common units of volume:

Units : cubic centimeters (cm³), cubic meters (m³), liters (L), milliliters (mL), and gram (gm)
