Answer 1

In this question, the length , width and height of the rectangular prism is given which is 4inches, 6 inches and 10 inches respectively .

We have to find the area of the rectangular prism, and the formula that we have to use here is

`Area= 2(length * width + width * height + length * height )`

Substituting the values of length , width and height, we will get

`Area = 2(4*6 + 6*10+4*10) = 2(24 +60 +40) = 248 inches^2`
