How do you find the surface area of a 3D triangle?
Sum the areas of all four faces.
How do you find the surface area of a 3d object?
It depends, but in let's look at a simple example to help you see how. How would you find the surface area of a cube. Find the surface area of one of the faces and since there are six of those, multiply it by 6. For example, a 2x2x2 cube. Each face has a surface area of 4 and there are 6 of them so the total surface area is 24 units. We do the same thing with other 3d objects, but it may be harder to find the surface area of faces. In face, sometimes there are no faces and we may need calculus to find the surface area.
How is the surface area different from area?
Surface area is all the areas for a 3 figure. Area is for only on side of a 3d figure
What is a formula for surface area of triangle?
K, well there is no surface area of a triangle, because a triangle is a 2s figure. Surface area is for a 3d figure. To find the regular area of a triangle the formula is 1/2 of the base X the height :) gl :P
How does a 2D shape look different from a 3D shape?
A 2D shape is flat and only has a surface area whereas a 3D shape is an object that has surface area and volume.
What is the formula to find volume of a trapezoid?
The trapezoid is a plane figure which has surface Area, but no volume but if there was a 3d figure your equation would be. The Surface Area of a trapezoid = ½(b1+b2) x h X Height of figure.
How do you find the surface area of a 3D triangle?
Sum the areas of all four faces.
What is a 3D trapezoid called?
Trapezoid is 3D. The shadow of this shape is called Trapezium.

Which is a 3d shape?
That will depend on what they are but in general 3D shapes have surface area and volume whereas 2D shapes have only surface area.
What is a 3 dimensional trapezoid called?
An 3d trapezoid
How do you find the surface of a 3D object?
on a 3D object to find the surface is to look on all flat surfaces. yourwelcome
What is a pyramid with a base shaped like a trapezoid?
3D trapezoid
What shape has the most surface area?
least volume and most surface area is 3D triangle
What is the difference between surface area and area?
Area is usually pertaining to the area of a 2d object but surface is 3d object
