How do you calculate the surface of a wedge?
split the wedge into a triangle and a and rectangle or square. Then calculate the surface area for each shape and add them together
What is the amount of surface a shape has?
Surface area of a shape depends on what shape you have in mind.
Why is area only calculated for a flat spape?
because for a 3d shape you use surface area which is the same except you calculate the area of each side and then add them together
To calculate the area of the front surface of the front of a box?
If it's just the front surface of a box then it's simply a 2D shape, the area can be calculated by multiplying the length by the width. Answer will be in units squared.
How do you calculate the surrounding area of an irregular shape?
The most direct way to calculate the area of an irregular shape is to superimpose it on graph paper, and then count the number of complete squares that it covers, and for squares that are only partially covered, estimate how much of the square is covered to the nearest simple fraction (a half, a third etc.). If you want the surrounding area rather than the area of the shape itself, you could calculate the total area and then subtract the area of the shape.
