125.4
Hope this helps

Answer 2

Surface area of the prism = 125 sq m.

Explanation:

The surface area of the right triangular prism is the sum of area of all its faces.

The area of the two triangular faces =
`2x(1)/(2) x3 x5=15 m^(2)`

Area of rectangle on left = 8x3=24 sq m.

Area of center rectangle = 8x5=40 sq m.

Area of rectangle on right = 8 x 5.8 = 46.4 sq m.

Total area =15+24+40+46.4= 125 sq m (Rounded to nearest whole number)
