(We will look at volume in a later module.) Surface area is what it sounds like: it’s the sum of the areas of all of the outer surfaces of the solid. When you are struggling to wrap a present because your sheet of wrapping paper isn’t quite big enough, you are dealing with surface area.

Just as the volume of a pyramid is 13 the volume of a prism with the same base and height, the volume of a cone is 13 the volume of a cylinder with the same base and height.
