The formula for the surface area of a rectangular solid is = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
2(length x width)+2(length x height)+2(width x height)
The "Surface Area" of the solid figure. Note, the word "total" in the answer above is not correct/needed - there can not be anything less than a surface area of a solid figure.
To find the surface area of a rectangular prism, use the formula ( SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh ), where ( l ) is the length, ( w ) is the width, and ( h ) is the height of the prism. This formula calculates the area of all six rectangular faces. Simply plug in the dimensions of the prism to compute the total surface area.
For the same base dimensions (base area) and the same height, the rectangular prism has more surface area.
Given the surface area of a rectangular prism, there are infinitely many rectangular prisms possible.

Properties of a rectangular prism: * A rectangular prism has a total of 6 surfaces. * Because it is rectangular it will have 4 equal longer edges and 8 equal shorter edges, and so * It will have 4 rectangular faces and 2 square faces, therefore * Total surface area = 2 x square (end ) surface + 4 x rectangular (side) surfaces If we let x = shorter edges (breadth) & y = longer edges (length), and, as area = length x breadth, then * each end (a square surface) will have an area of x2 * each side (rectangular surface) will have an area of xy Thus: Total surface area of the rectangular prism = 2 x end area + 4 x side area = 2x2 + 4xy = 2x(x + 2y) Hope this nswers your question and explains how we arrive at the formula for calculating the total surface area of a rectangular prism.
In the absence of any further information, multiply the length by the width

Suppose that the area of the rectangular base is: lw then if the height is: h the surface area is: lw + lh + wh I believe that formula is for the surface area of a rectangular prism...
Each speck of the powder has a smaller surface area than the lump of solid, however the total surface area of the powder specks will be greater than that of the solid lump
