D 1.3 Skill Builder oe Surface Areas of Rectangular Prisms The surface area of a rectangular prism is the sum of the areas of its 6 rectangular faces. Look for matching faces with the same areas. The matching faces in each pair have the same area We find the area of one face and multiply by 2, Gem Tem For each rectangular face, area equals its length times its width.
