A unit of measurement can't help you find the surface area. You must do that on
your own, using whatever method and equipment seem most appropriate for the
situation. After you've found the surface area, THEN you decide which unit of
measurement to use to describe it. You should select the unit that produces the
most convenient number ... the number that's easiest to write down, remember,
tell other people about, and spot a mistake if you write it incorrectly. Whatever
unit you choose, it will always be the square of a length unit.

Why cant you find an exact surface area measurement for a prism and pyramid but for a cylinder?
You can find the exact surface area for all of those shapes.
Can you find the exact measurement of a cylinder?
What do you mean by "exact measurement"? Do you wish to determine the cylinder's height? Its diameter? Its surface area? Its volume?
How do you find the area of something using width length depth?
Area is a plane or surface measurement. Depth is not required. Multiply the length by the width.
How do you find the surface area of a triangular surface?
to find the surface area you have to first find the area of each part then add the areas together.
How does geometry helps in measuring height and distance?
Because there is a strong relationship between geometry and measurement, an understanding of geometry can contribute to an understanding of measurement, and vice versa. ... Use measurement formulas to find the volume and surface area of geometric solids.
