You find the area of the base and then find the area of one triangle. Multiply that one triangle by 4 and then add the base.
The above is correct for a triangular pyramid NOT a triangilar prism.
A triangular prism has two triangular ends and three rectangular faces. The rectangular faces need no be the same shape, but if they are,
So Area = 2*area of triangular ends + 3*area of rectangular faces
If not, you'll just have to calculate each area separately and add them.

How do you find the base if a triangular prism?
okay, to find the base of a triangular prism you just b = 2a/h (base = 2 * area/height)
How do you find surface area of a triangular prisim?
2*area of triangular faces + perimeter of triangle*length of prism (not prisim).
Is a triangular prism has the same surface area as a pyramid with a triangular base true or false?
False, the prism can be of any length.
What is area of prism 5cm 4cm 3cm?
It depends on the prism. Is it a triangular prism, a rectangular prism, a pentagonal prism... etc..
How do you find the lateral surface of a triangular prism?
The lateral area [L] of a right prism with base perimeter [P] and height [h] is L=Ph.
Find the surface area of the right triangular prism?
the defnition of find the surface area of triangular prism and cylinder
How do you find the surface area of an equilateral triangular prism?
To find the surface area of an equilateral triangular prism you take the area of the rectangular sides and the triangular bases and add them up and your done.
How do you find the SA of a triangular prism?
You find the area of each of the four triangular faces of the prism and add them together.
What is the surface area of one side of a triangular prism?
It depends on the size of the triangular prism, but depending on the side of the prism you use the triangle area formula to find it or the rectangle area formula to find it.
What is the formula for finding the total surface area of a triangular prism?
Assume that a = apothem length of the triangular prism, b = base length of the triangular prism, and h = height of the triangular prism. The formulas to find the surface area is SA = ab + 3bh.
Formula for volume of a triangular prism?
Find the area of a triangular section, 1/2bh, and then multiply by the length of the prism.
How do you find the base if a triangular prism?
okay, to find the base of a triangular prism you just b = 2a/h (base = 2 * area/height)
How do you find capacity for a triangular prism?
Capacity generally implies volume in geometry. To calculate the volume of a triangular prism, find the area of one of its triangular bases and multiply it by the height of the shape.
Formula for volume of triangular prism?
To find the volume of a triangular prism, find the area of one of the triangles (base of the prism) first (base x height divided by 2). When you have the area of the triangle, then multiply the area of the triangle by the height of the prism, *not the height of the base.
How do you find surface area of a triangular prisim?
2*area of triangular faces + perimeter of triangle*length of prism (not prisim).
How do you find the height of a triangular prism?
All you have to do is find the area divide it by the base and then you get the height.
What is the formula for the lateral area of a triangular prism?
Length of prism * perimeter of triangular face.
