Answer 1

Given: triangular prism bases each have an area of 6 cm² and a perimeter of 12 cm, and the altitude is 4 cm.

Find: surface area of the triangular prism .

Step-by-step explanation:

`\begin{gathered} surface\text{ area of the triangular prism = \lparen perimeter }* length)+2(base\text{ area\rparen} \\ =(12*4)+2(6) \\ =48+12 \\ =60cm^2 \end{gathered}`

Final answer: the required value of the area of triangular prism is 60 square centimeter.
