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.

What is the volume of a figure when the surface area is 294?

The surface area of a figure does not provide enough information to determine its volume. Indeed, it does no even determine its shape.The volume can have any positive value up to 474.018 cubic units.The surface area of a figure does not provide enough information to determine its volume.

What is the surface area of a quadrilateral?

Well it matters if you put it in a 3-dimensional or a 2-dimensional figure because if you turn it into a 3-dimensional figure the the surface would have a flat surface with volume and area.If you draw a quad in 2-D then the figure you draw is the surface.
