You find the area of each of the four triangular faces of the prism and add them together.
Area = (base x height) / 2
It depends on the size of the triangular prism, but depending on the side of the prism you use the triangle area formula to find it or the rectangle area formula to find it.
to find the surface area you have to first find the area of each part then add the areas together.
Assume that a = apothem length of the triangular prism, b = base length of the triangular prism, and h = height of the triangular prism. The formulas to find the surface area is SA = ab + 3bh.
It is a triangular prism and any triangular prism is a wedge.

the defnition of find the surface area of triangular prism and cylinder
First find the are of the 90 degree triangular end. This is 0.5*a*b where a and b are the two legs of the triangle adjacent to the right angle. Multiply the result by the length of the wedge. First find the are of the 90 degree triangular end. This is 0.5*a*b where a and b are the two legs of the triangle adjacent to the right angle. Multiply the result by the length of the wedge.

To find the surface area of an equilateral triangular prism you take the area of the rectangular sides and the triangular bases and add them up and your done.
a triangular prism
2*area of triangular faces + perimeter of triangle*length of prism (not prisim).
A Triangular Prism.
You find the area of each of the four triangular faces of the prism and add them together.
You find the area of the base and then find the area of one triangle. Multiply that one triangle by 4 and then add the base. The above is correct for a triangular pyramid NOT a triangilar prism. A triangular prism has two triangular ends and three rectangular faces. The rectangular faces need no be the same shape, but if they are, So Area = 2*area of triangular ends + 3*area of rectangular faces If not, you'll just have to calculate each area separately and add them.
Wedge is not a brand or product which can be used in a correct way. Instead 'wedge' is a technical term with many uses. The most common use of the term if in reference to a 'wedge' of cheese or wood. This is typically a triangular solid with 2 triangular faces and three trapezoid faces.
