Surface Area is technically the same as area if we are dealing with 2-dimensional surfaces. But, it is mostly used to find an area of a 3-dimensional object.
3-dimensional is not flat, like a cardboard box, while 2-dimensional shape is flat, like a face of a 3-D shape.e.g, a face of a box.
A triangle by definition only has 2 dimensions.
The surface area of the 3-D figure will be the total of the areas of the 2-D figures.
multiply length x width x height.

Add the areas of the 6 sides and then multiply this answer by 2 to yield the combined area as there is a back and a front to each side. Area is 2-dimensional: height x width.
The question does not make any sense. A rectangle is a 2-dimensional object and an area is a 2-dimensional concept. The area of a rectangle is its length times its width. A cube is 3-dimensional. There is no such thing as a cubed area.

A box is not any kind of surface because a box is a 3-dimensional object whereas a surface is 2 dimensional.
multiply length x width x height.
Area is a 2-dimensional measure. Perimeter is 1-dimensional and volume is 3-dimensional.
3-dimensional rectangle.
Volume is a measurement for 3 dimensional objects. A triangle is a 2-dimensional object. The area of a triangle is (base)x(height)/2
Volume is 3 dimensional, and Area is 2 dimensional.
