Question

What is the total area of a right rectangular prism with a height of 8 feet, a width of 10 feet, and a thickness of 12 feet?

Answer 1

Greetings

Answer:

`960^(3)`

Explanation:

To find the area when the length, height an width is given, you simply multiply all these values together:

8 x 10 x 12 = 960

So the total area is
`960^(3)`

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

`A = 592\,ft^(2)`

Explanation:

The surface area of a rectangular prism is given by this formula:

`A = 2\cdot w\cdot h + 2\cdot w \cdot t + 2\cdot h \cdot t`

Where:

`w` - Width, in feet.

`h` - Height, in feet

`t` - Thickness, in feet.

Finally, the surface area is computed by replacing every variable:

`A = 2\cdot (10\,ft)\cdot (8\,ft) + 2\cdot (10\,ft)\cdot (12\,ft) + 2\cdot (8\,ft)\cdot (12\,ft)`

`A = 592\,ft^(2)`
