It depends on the shape. To find the area of a square, multiply two sides (length x width), or find the square of a side (s2). To find the area of a rectangle, multiply length times width. The area of a triangle is 1/2 base x height, or (base x height)/2.
what kind of measurement to use when finding the area of a 2d shape
You times the length by width, to get the area of the 2D 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.
A circle doesn't have a surface area because it is a 2D object. The area of a circle is = pi r2. if you mean the surface area of a sphere it is = 4 pi r2
There is none because a trapezoid is a 2D shape but if you meant the area it is:- Area in square units = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height

There is none because a triangle is a 2D shape -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There is not one. Triangles are two dimensional, volume is three dimensional, a triangle can therefore have an area but not a volume.

yes :)
A 2D shape is flat and only has a surface area whereas a 3D shape is an object that has surface area and volume.
The area of the shape
The base of a rectangular prism is just an old familiar 2D rectangle. All the old familiar 2D formulas for rectangles still apply to it.
is the shape 2d or 3d? what is the shape? if if 2d then hust multiply the length by height

Height, width, area, perimeter.
No. A 2d shape is a plane area, which may be regarded as a face, which is bounded by a side or sides.
