The surface area of a prism is the sum of the areas of all its faces.
Area of top and bottom faces = 2(8x3) = 48 cm? sony
Area of front and back faces = 2(5x8) = 80 cm?
Area of side and side = 2(3x5) = 30 om? Sem
Surface Area = 158 om*
The general formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is
S.A. = 2(L x W) + 2(H x L) + 2(W x H)

The formula for the surface area of cylinders is:

S.A. = 2r® + 2rvh
r= radius
h = height
Find the surface are of a cylinder if:
h=10m
r=5m
