A prism is a generic term used to describe a polyhedron with two parallel and congruent polygonal bases and a number of rectangles joining the two bases. The bases can also be curved, in which case they are joined by a curved surface.
The total surface area of a prism will be 2*area of base + perimeter of base*length of prism.

What is the surface area of a prism called?
It is simply called its surface area.
What is the formula for finding the total surface area of a triangular prism?
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.
What is the smallest possible surface area of a right prism with a volume of 200 cm3?
Assuming you mean a rectangular prism, you get the smallest surface area if the prism is a cube. You can calculate the required length of side to get that volume; then, based on that, the corresponding surface area.
How many flat and curved surface have a prism?
A prism has no curved surfaces. It has 5 or more flat faces.
What is the surfice area of a prism?
The surface area of a prism = 2 × area of base + perimeter of base × H
Is prism has curved surface?
No prism can have a curved surface.
What is the difference of the surface area of a cylinder and a rectangular prism?
The surface area of a cylinder prism has round shape and the surface of a rectangular prism has a square shape.
What is the surface area of a prism?
The surface area of a prism is the two bases and all the sides A = 2 *area of base + Perimeter of base * Height of prism.
Find the surface area of the right triangular prism?
the defnition of find the surface area of triangular prism and cylinder
Do prisms always have the same surface area?
No, the surface area of a prism depends on its shape. The surface area of a prism is calculated by adding the areas of all of its faces, which can vary based on the dimensions and angles of the prism.
Can a prism slide?
Yes, a prism can slide along a surface because it has flat sides that can make contact with the surface. The movement may be influenced by factors such as the friction between the prism and the surface, as well as the angle at which it is placed on the surface.
Surface area and volume of a right prism?
The surface are of a right prism is equal to twice the area of its base plus the perimeter of the base multiplied with the height of the prism. The volume can be determined by multiplying the Area of the base by the height of the prism.
What is the surface area of the prism?
8
What is the similarity ratio of a prism with surface area 361 ft2 to a similar prism with surface area 81 ft2?
The ratio is 19/9.
Surface area of rectangular prism?
surface area of a rectangular prism is the formula: 2lw+2wh+2lh
How do you calculate the surface area of an equalaterial trinuglar based prism?
To calculate the surface area of the equilateral triangular-based prism, you need to calculate the area of the equilateral triangle and all the other sides of the prism. The total area of all the phases will give the total surface are of an equilateral triangular based prism.
What is the surface area of a prism called?
It is simply called its surface area.
