For several things. To buy or sell land (price is calculated by the square meter), to estimate how much paint you need for a paint job, to calculate how quickly an object will react with the environment (this often depends on the surface area), and many other more.
The surface area of prisms or pyramids are simply the total area of the corresponding nets.
The surface area of the 3-D figure will be the total of the areas of the 2-D figures.
From the surface area, calculate the length of each side: area = 6 x side2.Once you know this side, you can get the cube of it, to obtain the volume.
The surface area of every sphere is (4 pi) times (the radius squared).Knowing that, you can find the surface area of not only the one you'reasking about right now, but of every sphere that ever was, is, or will be !
Divide the surface area by six. That will give you the area of one face, which will be a perfect square. The square root of that number will give you the length of a side. The cube of the side will be the volume.
There are many possibilities with out knowing its width, length or any other useful information.
This is impossible to calculate without knowing the surface area of the pool.
Maps, construction drawings, models, and in understanding the concept of area to surface area to volume of cell theory and I could go on.
Webbed feet have a bigger surface area which helps the ducks swim faster.

The answer depends on formula for WHAT! Its volume, surface area, number of faces, vertices, edges? Since you have not bothered to share that crucial bit of information, I cannot provide a more useful answer.The answer depends on formula for WHAT!

The cross-section of a prism is the same - it is the same as the shape of the two parallel "bases"; this cross-section can be any shape, not necessarily a rectangle. Each side of a prism is rectangular, so knowing the formula for a rectangle will help you along to finding the surface area of the prism by helping you to calculate the area of the sides; however, you will still need to be able to calculate the area of the bases (unless it is given to you), for which knowing the area of a rectangle may not (usually will not) help.
