1. If you include the top, a cylinder has three faces.

2. A triangular prism has five faces.

3. In general, if you take the number of sides in the base of a prism and add two, you get the number of faces of the prism.

4. Since surface area is a measure of area, all answers to the surface area examples should be given in square units.

5. To calculate the surface area of a cube, you only need to know the length of one side.
