Exploring Surface Area Concepts

What does the surface area of a 3D object represent?

• The total volume inside the object

• The total area of all the object's faces

• The length of the object

• The weight of the object

What is a net in the context of surface area?

• A mathematical operation

• A 2D representation of a 3D object

• A type of graph

• A tool for catching fish

Why do we not consider the volume when calculating surface area?

• Because they are the same measurement

• Because volume calculations are too complex

• Because volume is always larger than surface area

• Because surface area only concerns the outer layer
