Volume and Surface Area

Area is defined as

• the number of squared units needed to cover a surface

• total area of the surface of a three-dimensional object

• the length of the outline of a shape. To find this, you added all sides lengths together.

• the 3-dimensional space enclosed by a boundary or occupied by an object
