Use the formula A = 1/2 b × h.

Answer:The formula A=12bh is used to find the area of the top and bases triangular faces, where A = area, b = base, and h = height. The formula A=lw is used to find the area of the three rectangular side faces, where A = area, l = length, and w = width.


Plugging in the measurements that are given in the net, calculate the area of each face. Remember to use the correct area formula for the triangles
