It would be difficult to do that not knowing the figure we want. Are we talking cylinder, right rectangular solid, cone, pyramid?
------
The formula for surface area of
cylinder is: 2 x area of base + 2Ch,
where C = circumference of base, and h = height
-----
The formula for surface area of
right rectangular solid is: 2(lw + lh + wh)
-----
The formula for surface area of
cone is: area of base + 2Cl,
where C = circumference of base, and l = slant height
-----
The formula for surface area of
pyramid is: area of base + area of all faces
