Is the total area the same as the surface area?

Yes.Conventionally, total area is usually used for the area of a complicated 2-dimensional shape where the area of smaller shapes are calculated and added together. The surface area usually refers to a 3-dimensional object for which the areas of the faces are calculated and added together.Yes.Conventionally, total area is usually used for the area of a complicated 2-dimensional shape where the area of smaller shapes are calculated and added together.

What two shapes have the same number or faces?

pentagonal prism


Is surface area the same as area?

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.


Are Faces and bases the same thing?

Yes. A face is a flat surface of a cube, prism, etc. A base is the same.


Is surface area the same as volume?

No. How can they be the same, if one of them is a two-dimensional measure, the other a three-dimensional measure.
