How does knowing the area of two-dimensional figures help you find the surface area of a three-dimensional shape?
The surface area of the 3-D figure will be the total of the areas of the 2-D figures.
What does area mean for math?
Area is a measure of the extent of a shape in two dimensional space.
What is the difference between a two dimensional shape and a solid shape?
the difference between a two dimensional shape and and a solid is that a two dimensional shape is plane and a solid you can see the whole shape a the inside.
What is the difference between area and surface area?
Area is the measure of a two-dimensional space enclosed by a shape, and surface area is the sum of all the areas of the faces of a three-dimensional solid.
How do you do volume of a irregular shape that is two dimensional?
If a shape is two dimensional it has NO volume - volume is an attribute of THREE dimensional shapes.If you meant the AREA of an irregular two dimensional shape, then divided it up into areas which are not irregular and so you can calculates them, and sum the areas of these non-irregular shapes.If you meant the volume of an irregular THREE dimensional shape, then a similar process can be followed by dividing it up into three dimensional shapes you can can calculate the volume of and summing them, though if it is an irregular object that you are physically holding, then you can find its volume by finding the increase in volume of a liquid (In a regular container) when the object is submerged into that liquid.
