Is a cylinder not a prism and why?
A cylinder is not a prism because it has a circular base and therefore requires a different formula to figure out its volume, surface area, etc.
What is the difference of the surface area of a cylinder and a rectangular prism?
The surface area of a cylinder prism has round shape and the surface of a rectangular prism has a square shape.
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 calculate the surface area of an equalaterial trinuglar based prism?
To calculate the surface area of the equilateral triangular-based prism, you need to calculate the area of the equilateral triangle and all the other sides of the prism. The total area of all the phases will give the total surface are of an equilateral triangular based prism.
Do prisms always have the same surface area?
No, the surface area of a prism depends on its shape. The surface area of a prism is calculated by adding the areas of all of its faces, which can vary based on the dimensions and angles of the prism.
Is a cylinder not a prism and why?
A cylinder is not a prism because it has a circular base and therefore requires a different formula to figure out its volume, surface area, etc.
Will an equilateral triangular prism have the least amount of surface area?
No. Relative to its volume, the greater the number of sides, the smaller the volume. In the limit, a cylinder (circular prism, with an infinite number of "sides") will have the least surface area.
What is the smallest possible surface area of a right prism with a volume of 200 cm3?
Assuming you mean a rectangular prism, you get the smallest surface area if the prism is a cube. You can calculate the required length of side to get that volume; then, based on that, the corresponding surface area.
What is the difference of the surface area of a cylinder and a rectangular prism?
The surface area of a cylinder prism has round shape and the surface of a rectangular prism has a square shape.
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.
Find the surface area of the right triangular prism?
the defnition of find the surface area of triangular prism and cylinder
What is the surface area of a prism called?
It is simply called its surface area.
How are the shortcuts for finding surface area and volume different?
volume is simply how much something can hold. area is based on the amount of space covering the figure. the short cut for surface area for a prism is lateral area+2base areas this is as simple as it gets for volume for a prism it is lwh
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.
What is the formula for finding the surface area using 3.14 for rectangular prism?
The formula for finding the surface area of a rectangular prism is 2(wh + lw + lh), where w is width, h is height, and l is length. 3.14 is the value for pi, which is only used for circular objects, like circles, cylinders, and spheres. It has nothing to do with rectangular prisms. Click on the related link below for an illustration of the formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism.
