Area is often confused with ‘surface area’, which is technically the same if it is in terms of 2-dimensional surfaces. However, it is more appropriately used to express the size of a surface exposed, by a particular solid, that is 3-dimensional. read more
Surface area is also an area.When area is measured for 3d then it is surface area, for 2d it is called as area. Let's take 1 square. It 's area is a*a=a^2 ( a=side of square). If these type of 6 squares are combined and 1 cube is formed then total area=6*a^2. this area is called as surface area. read more
Area vs Surface Area Geometry is a main branch of mathematics where we learn about shapes, size and properties of figures. It helps us understand and classify spaces. read more
