That depends on the shape of the base. A prism can have any sort of polygon for its base.

What is the surface area of a prism?
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.
Surface area and volume of a right 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.
Is the surface area of the prism is the sum of the area of the base and lateral faces of the prism?
No, there are TWO bases.
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 the volume of a rectangular prism if you know the area and height?
Volume of rectangular prism = area of base x height
How do you work out area of a triangular prism?
The area of such a prism is Bh/3, where B is the base area, and h is the height (perpendicular to the plane that contains the base area).The area of such a prism is Bh/3, where B is the base area, and h is the height (perpendicular to the plane that contains the base area).The area of such a prism is Bh/3, where B is the base area, and h is the height (perpendicular to the plane that contains the base area).The area of such a prism is Bh/3, where B is the base area, and h is the height (perpendicular to the plane that contains the base area).
What is the surfice area of a prism?
The surface area of a prism = 2 × area of base + perimeter of base × H
What is the surface area of a prism?
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.
Surface area and volume of a right 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.
How do you find the answer of the base area of a rectangular prism?
The base of a rectangular prism is a rectangle. The area of a rectangle is length times width.
What is the surface area of a right prism?
The surface area of a right prism is the sum of the areas of all its faces. The formula for calculating the surface area of a right prism is 2 × (base area) + (lateral area), where the base area is the area of the base shape and the lateral area is the sum of the areas of the remaining faces. The lateral area can also be calculated by multiplying the perimeter of the base shape by the height of the prism.
Is the surface area of the prism is the sum of the area of the base and lateral faces of the prism?
No, there are TWO bases.
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.
The volume of a right prism is the area of the base times the height of the prism?
Yes.
What is a base area of a prism?
It is width*length
What is the base area of a prism?
It is width*length
What is the formula for the area of base of a pentagonal based prism?
The fact that it's a prism has nothing to do with the area of the base. See the attached Related Link for your formula.
