if the shape is drawn to scale,(on paper) then measure the two side one width one length. when uve done that, multiply together.
lets take a cube for example.
the width of one face is 5cm and the lengh is 7cm
times those together and 35cm squared is your answer.(make sure to wright squared as a small 2 at the top)
to find out the whole surface area,(of this cube)times the answer(35 in this case) by 6 (it is 6 because that is how many sides are on a cube.) your answer would be 205 cm squared
hope this helps!!!

How do you find the surface area for a solid?
It really depends on what solid you refer to. Basically, the surface area is basically taking a shape's net and finding the area of that.
What does it mean to increase the surface area of a solid?
increase the surface area of a solid means to increase the area of solid
When you crush a solid do you increase or decrease surface area?
You increase the surface area
What is the name of sum of the areas of all faces of a solid figure?
The "Surface Area" of the solid figure. Note, the word "total" in the answer above is not correct/needed - there can not be anything less than a surface area of a solid figure.
What is the difference between volume of solid figure and surface area of a solid figure?
Volume is how much an object can store - like how much can you put inside a box. Surface area is the sum of the area of an objects surfaces - such as if you have a box, find the area of one side. Then you just multiply it by 6 (because a box have 6 faces) to get the total area of an object's surface.
