The video tutorial explains how to find the surface area and volume of a rectangular prism. It begins with an introduction to prisms, including rectangular and cylindrical types. The teacher then describes the concept of surface area, using real-world examples like a cereal box to illustrate. The tutorial continues with a detailed explanation of how to calculate the surface area by unfolding the prism into a net. Finally, the video covers the calculation of volume, emphasizing the formula length times width times height, and provides step-by-step guidance on finding the volume of a rectangular prism.

What defines a prism?

• A shape with only one base

• A shape with multiple bases, including a front and back base

• A shape with no bases
