NO. This is the way to get the volume of a prism, not the surface area of any three-dimensional figure. To find the surface area of a three-dimensional figure, you must find the area of each of its faces and then add the side-areas together.
Its total surface area.
The surface area of the 3-D figure will be the total of the areas of the 2-D figures.
No. An area is always two-dimensional. It doesn't matter whether you are talking about the area of a square, a circle, an ellipse, or any other flat figure; or the surface are of a three-dimensional figure such as a cube or sphere.
That's the area.
You need to find the area of each two dimensional surface on the figure. Do you have a specific figure in mind?
NO. This is the way to get the volume of a prism, not the surface area of any three-dimensional figure. To find the surface area of a three-dimensional figure, you must find the area of each of its faces and then add the side-areas together.
a solid figure
The answer is surface area.
TRUE: To find the surface area of a three dimensional figure, you must find the area of each of its faces and then add them together.
Its total surface area.
False.To find the surface area of a three-dimensional figure, find the area of the faces and add them together.
The surface area of the 3-D figure will be the total of the areas of the 2-D figures.
The term area is generally reserved for a two-dimensional polygon, but surface area is the term of the area of the different surfaces on a three-dimensional figure---the faces on the object. So no, they are not the same.
Surface area concerns a 3-dimensional figure such as a cube or sphere. Area concerns a 2-dimensional figure such as a square or circle.
... face and add them together.
surface area is the like the area of the outside of a 3 dimensional figure, area is the measure of what is inside a 2 dimensional
