For a regular shape there are certain formulae for calculating area. You will need to learn, or know where to find these.
With irregular shapes it becomes more difficult.

What is the formula to find the surface area of a tetrahedron?
It depends on whether or not the tetrahedron is regular. There is nothing in the question to indicate that it might be regular. In that case the easiest way to calculate the surface area is to sum the areas of each of its 4 faces.
The easiest way to find the area and volume of a tennis ball?
A tennis ball is a spherical shape. Surface area of a sphere in square units = 4*pi*radius2 Volume of a sphere in cubic units = 4/3*pi*radius3
How do you solve the surface area of the cone?
For a right circular cone, by far the easiest way to find the surface areais to know the formula for the area, and apply it.The formula for the area of a right circular cone isArea = (pi x R) x (R + L)R = radius of the baseL = length of the slant from the base to the apex
What is the surface area of a dodecehedron?
you need measurements to figure out surface area. the simplest way to figure out the whole area of a dodecahedron is to find the surface area of one pentagon, then multiply by 12 (the number of sides of a dodecahedron)
To find the surface area of the three dimensional figure you must find the perimeter of a face and then multiply by the height?
NO. This is the way to get the volume of a prism, not the surface area of any three-dimensional figure. To find the surface area of a three-dimensional figure, you must find the area of each of its faces and then add the side-areas together.
What is the amount of space needed to cover something?
That would be called surface area. The way to calculate surface area varies depending on the shape of the surface. A quick google search such as "how to find surface area of a sphere" should solve your dilemma.
What is the surface area formula for a dodecahedron?
the surface area formula is difficult to understand. there is another way to do it.you find the area of one pentagon. then u multiply it by the number of faces which is 12.
How do you find the dimensions of a rectangular prism if you have the surface area?
It is not possible. For example, the prism could be tall and thin, or short and thick, and either way have the same surface area.
What is the easiest way to find prime factorization?
Many people find factor trees to be the easiest.
What is the volume of a cube whose surface area is 96 square units?
The easiest way to find the volume of a cube is to find the length of its edgeand then cube that number.Here's how to find the length of the edge from the total surface area:-- A cube has 6 faces. If its total surface area is 96 square units, thenthe area of each face is 16 square units.-- Each face is a square. If the area of the square is 16 square units, thenthe side of the square is 4 units.But the side of the square face is the same as the edge of the cube !-- The volume of the cube is (4 x 4 x 4) = 64 cubic units.
What is the easiest way for one to find a hotel?
You can easily find a hotel in the local area by looking in the Yellow Pages. If you're not in the area, looking up sites such as TripAdvisor or Expedia will give you a good range.
Where can I find an emt job in my area?
