Question

Find the surface area of this right rectangular prism. Dimensions are in inches.
3, 2, and 4

Answer 1

The area of the rectangular prism is 52 sq. inches

Explanation:

Here, the dimensions of the prism are 3 inch, 2 inch and 4 inch

So, length = 4 inch

Breadth = 3 inch

and height = 2 inch

Now, TOTAL SURFACE AREA OF A CUBOID = 2 (LB+ BH+ HL)

= 2 ((4 x 3) + (3 x 2) + (2 x 4))

= 2 (12 + 6 + 8) = 2 x 26 = 52 sq. inches

Hence, the area of the rectangular prism is 52 sq. inches
