Decagonal Prism Surface Area Formula

Formula variable explanation:

  • D represents the surface area.
  • e represents the Base edge.
  • h represents the Height.

LaTeX formula

If you are working in a TeX based editor you could use this TeX formula to calculate the decagonal prism surface area.

D=10\cdot e\cdot\mathrm{h}+5\cdot{ e}^{2}\cdot\sqrt{5+2\cdot\sqrt{5}}

How To Calculate The Decagonal Prism Surface Area Your Self

Calculating the surface area is rather simple when you know the formula presented above. Follow these steps:

  1. Write down this formula:

  2. Then change the following variables with your values:
    1. e shall be changed with the Base edge of your decagonal prism. As an example e could be changed to 10.
    2. h shall be changed with the Height of your decagonal prism. As an example h could be changed to 10.
  3. Now you can enter this in to your calculator and you will get your answer.
