Welcome to our Prism Surface Area Calculator, which will help you calculate the surface area for different types of Prisms. A prism is a solid three-dimensional shape with polygons as bases on either end of the prism. The bases are congruent and parallel to each other. The bases are connected by the prism’s lateral faces.
There are different types of prisms, classified based on the shape of their bases.
The lateral surface area of the prism is the sum of the areas of all the lateral faces. The total surface area of the prism is the sum of the lateral surface area and the areas of both bases.
Using the Prism Surface Area calculator, you can calculate the prism’s lateral surface area and total surface area by inputting the values of the required variables for the specific type of Prism.
