The surface area of a cylinder prism has round shape and the surface of a rectangular prism has a square shape.
The surface area of a prism is the two bases and all the sides A = 2 *area of base + Perimeter of base * Height of prism.
The surface are of a right prism is equal to twice the area of its base plus the perimeter of the base multiplied with the height of the prism. The volume can be determined by multiplying the Area of the base by the height of the prism.
No, there are TWO bases.
The Surface area of a triangle = 0.5*base*height The volume of a prism = area of its cross-section*length
