Math Help: Surface area of cubes, cuboids and triangular prisms

In this module, you can study how to find the surface area of a cube, a cuboid (or rectangular prism) and a triangular prism.

The surface area formulae for all prisms and cylinders are the same.  They are all (two x the area of the base) plus (the perimeter of the base x the height of the object).

Even though a prism is a three-dimensional object, its surface area is two-dimensional.
