Finding Surface Area of Cubes and Prisms

This lesson teaches how to calculate the surface area of cubes and prisms by visualizing them as nets. It covers the properties of cubes and rectangular prisms, explaining how to find the area of each face and sum them to get the total surface area. Practical applications, such as using wrapping paper, are also discussed.
