Miacademy & MiaPrep Learning Channel

This instructional video provides a clear, step-by-step guide to calculating the surface area of three-dimensional figures, specifically focusing on cubes, rectangular prisms, and triangular prisms. The narrator, Kaylee, transitions students from understanding area in 2D to visualizing surface area in 3D by defining it as the sum of the areas of all faces on a solid figure. The video emphasizes visualization techniques to help students grasp the concept of hidden faces.
