Call it a baseless hunch, but I can't shake the feeling that wherever you copied
this question from, there must be some kind of a sketch or a drawing near it. The
way I see it, there's no way I can even start answering the question without
seeing the drawing. In fact, I think that must be why it was printed there, so
close to the question.
The surface area of a space figure is the total area of all the faces of the figure
surface area
a solid figure
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.
Oolik,k.,.
The surface area of a space figure is the total area of all the faces of the figure
Its area.
The diff is that SA (SURFACE AREA) is the area of the entire figure like a cube you would find the whole area of the firgure not the face. Area is the amount of space an object takes like a field to find out how much space it takes. :)
First, find the area of each 2-D face of the figure, then add those up.
Surface area is all the areas for a 3 figure. Area is for only on side of a 3d figure
The area of the figure is the amount of space enclosed by its perimeter.
That depends on the figure whose surface area and volume you're finding. You could try a Google search for "volume of [figure name]" or "surface area of [figure name]".
You need to find the area of each two dimensional surface on the figure. Do you have a specific figure in mind?
Surface area concerns a 3-dimensional figure such as a cube or sphere. Area concerns a 2-dimensional figure such as a square or circle.
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)
its the overall space the object takes up....So technically yes its the inside....To find it on a box its Length x Width x Height +++ That gives the volume, not surface area.
The "Surface Area" of the solid figure. Note, the word "total" in the answer above is not correct/needed - there can not be anything less than a surface area of a solid figure.
