Volume= Length x Width x Height= (y)^3
Surface area= Multiply the length by the width of one of the long faces. Multiply the answer by 2.
Then multiply the length by the width of the face either to the left or right of that one, it doesn't matter just so long as you don't use the face opposite the one you started with. Multiply that answer by 2.
Then multiply the length by the width of one of the end faces. Multiply that by 2.
Add all three numbers up and you have the surface are in (y)^2
y=units

What is the volume of a rectangular prism if the surface area is 34?
You can't derive the volume from the surface area.
Is the volume of a rectangular prism squared or cubed?
The volume is cubed and the surface area is squared.
How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different area?
Yes. A cube that is 2x2x2 has the same volume as a rectangular prism that is 1x2x4, which is 8. The surface area of the cube is 24 while the surface area of the rectangular prism is 28.
What is the volume and surface area of a rectangular prism?
it depends on which size it is and how much matter it contains
Describe the dimensions of a rectangular prism with a volume of 80 and a surface area of less than 132?
5x4x4 Volume=80 Surface Area=112
What is the volume of a rectangular prism if the surface area is 34?
You can't derive the volume from the surface area.
If you double the volume of a rectangular prism does its surface area double?
No.
Is the volume of a rectangular prism squared or cubed?
The volume is cubed and the surface area is squared.
How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different area?
Yes. A cube that is 2x2x2 has the same volume as a rectangular prism that is 1x2x4, which is 8. The surface area of the cube is 24 while the surface area of the rectangular prism is 28.
What is the relationship between surface area and volume of a rectangular prism?
There is no direct relationship.

What is the difference of the surface area of a cylinder and a rectangular prism?
The surface area of a cylinder prism has round shape and the surface of a rectangular prism has a square shape.
How do you find the volume of a rectangular prism if you know the area and height?
Volume of rectangular prism = area of base x height
Surface area of rectangular prism?
surface area of a rectangular prism is the formula: 2lw+2wh+2lh
What is the smallest possible surface area of a right prism with a volume of 200 cm3?
Assuming you mean a rectangular prism, you get the smallest surface area if the prism is a cube. You can calculate the required length of side to get that volume; then, based on that, the corresponding surface area.
