To calculate the surface area of a prism, you need to find the sum of the areas of all its faces.

In the case of your prism, it has two rectangular faces, a top and a bottom, and three rectangular faces for the sides.

To find the area of each rectangular face, you multiply its length by its width. The top and bottom faces have dimensions of 18 cm by 26 cm, so each of them has an area of (18 cm * 26 cm).

The three side faces have dimensions of 5 cm by 18 cm, so each of them has an area of (5 cm * 18 cm).

To calculate the surface area of the prism, you add up the areas of all five faces:

Surface Area = 2(top + bottom) + 3(sides)
Surface Area = 2(18 cm * 26 cm) + 3(5 cm * 18 cm)

To calculate the volume of a prism, you multiply its base area by its height. Since the base shape of your prism is a rectangle, you need to find the area of its base and multiply it by the height.

The area of the base can be found by multiplying the length by the width:

Base Area = Length * Width
Base Area = 5 cm * 18 cm

Then you multiply the base area by the height to find the volume:

Volume = Base Area * Height
Volume = (5 cm * 18 cm) * 26 cm

The volume calculation for the prism as a pyramid is a bit different. The volume of a pyramid is calculated by multiplying the base area by the height and dividing the result by 3.

So, to find the volume of the prism as a pyramid, you can use the formula:

Volume (Pyramid) = (Base Area * Height) / 3
Volume (Pyramid) = [(5 cm * 18 cm) * 26 cm] / 3

You can now substitute the values into each formula to find the surface area, volume, and volume as a pyramid of the given prism.
