Volume= Length x Width x Height= (y)^3
Surface area= Multiply the length by the width of one of the long faces. Multiply the answer by 2.
Then multiply the length by the width of the face either to the left or right of that one, it doesn't matter just so long as you don't use the face opposite the one you started with. Multiply that answer by 2.
Then multiply the length by the width of one of the end faces. Multiply that by 2.
Add all three numbers up and you have the surface are in (y)^2
y=units

What is the volume of a rectangular prism if the surface area is 34?
To find the volume of a rectangular prism when given the surface area, we need more information than just the surface area. The surface area of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l, w, and h are the length, width, and height of the prism, respectively. Without knowing at least one of these dimensions, we cannot determine the volume of the prism.
Is the volume of a rectangular prism squared or cubed?
The volume is cubed and the surface area is squared.
How is it possible for objects to have the same volume but different area?
Yes. A cube that is 2x2x2 has the same volume as a rectangular prism that is 1x2x4, which is 8. The surface area of the cube is 24 while the surface area of the rectangular prism is 28.
What is the volume and surface area of a rectangular prism?
it depends on which size it is and how much matter it contains
Describe the dimensions of a rectangular prism with a volume of 80 and a surface area of less than 132?
5x4x4 Volume=80 Surface Area=112
