Add all four sides.
If you don't know the side lengths then you must know either {height and diagonal from top to bottom-corner} or {diagonal from bottom-center to bottom-corner}. If you know the first two, then use Pythagoras' Theorem to find the second. Now, double that and use Pythagoras' Theorem to find the side length.

12 the base times the height
width*height*length=perimeter of a rectangular prism! :)
The lateral area [L] of a right prism with base perimeter [P] and height [h] is L=Ph.
L=PH L=PH Lateral Area= (Perimeter of the base)(the height of the figure)
If the octagon at the base is regular, the side of the octagon is s and the height of the prism is h, the area of each octagonal base (Ab) is Ab = 2(√2 +1) s2 The perimeter of the octagon is P = 8s Then the surface area of the prism is As = 2 Ab + Ph The volume of the prism is V = Ab h
