Surface area is measured in square units, the exact unit is given with the dimensions. For example, if the dimensions for a rectangular prism are 1cm by 1cm by 1cm, then the surface area is 6 square cm.
The above does not answer the question asked. Nor can it. The question asks for units and there is no such thing as a square unit. You can square a unit of measurement, but that is different.
A unit of measurement is determined by the system of measurement used and then determined from there. So before you can determine the unit, you have to ask what system are you using. The most universal form would be metric so you'd be working with meters and its variants such as the milliliter, centimeter, decimeter, and so on. Or, as we still do in the USA you could be using the Imperial standard in which case you're looking at inches, feet, yards, etc. Which to chose is based on the total area, as well as other information not provided in your question.

How long is 0.30 Acres?
An acre is not a unit of length, an acre, rather, is a unit of area. An area is measured 43,560 square feet.
Which cubes have the same volume and surface area?
A cube with an edge length of 6 units has a 216 square unit surface area and a 216 cubic unit volume.
What is the descriptor for the term square centimeter?
It is a derived unit in which area may be measured.
What is the formula to work out the surface area of a trapezoid?
the surface area of the trapezoid =(h/2)*(b1+b2) the unit is cm2 * * * * * Not particularly helpful when h, b1 and b2 are undefined. And not even true if these lengths are measured in inches!
The basic unit by which angles are measured is?
Angles are measured in degrees. It is degress 100% sure.
What is the unit of measure in finding the area?
The surface area is measured in square units
What unit is surface area measured in?
CUBED!?!?!?! example : 42cm² <-------- little 2
What is measured in terms of weight of air per unit surface area?
Air pressure is measured in pounds per square inch or psi.
What is area Weight unit?
Area is measured in square unit. Weight is measured in gram, kilogram etc.
That is the difference between force and pressure?
Force is a push or pull acting on an object, measured in Newtons (N). Pressure is the force applied per unit area and is measured in Pascals (Pa). In other words, force is the overall action, while pressure is the distribution of that force over an area.
What is the force acting on a unit area of a surface?
The force acting on a unit area of a surface is known as pressure. Pressure is calculated by dividing the force perpendicular to the surface by the area over which the force is distributed. It is typically measured in units such as Pascals (Pa) or pounds per square inch (psi).
What is the best unit of measure for the surface area of a pentagonal prism measured in inches?
Square inches seems a good bet.
Which measurement uses the unit of square centimeters?
Area. Area is measured by two lengths multiplied together, so any square-shaped area would be measured in a square (length) area. For example houses could be measured in square feet, landscapes could be measured in square miles, something like a small surface might be measured in square centimeters.
What units is area measured?
The square of any unit of length or distance is a unit of area.
The area of a large estate is measured in what metric unit?
the area of a large estate is measured in hectares
What is the force exterted on a surface divideed by the total area over which the force is exerted?
Pressure is defined as the force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted. It is measured in units of force per unit area, such as Pascals (Pa) or pounds per square inch (psi).
What equals force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted?
Pressure equals the force exerted on a surface divided by the total area over which the force is exerted. It is typically measured in units such as pascals (Pa) or pounds per square inch (psi).
