Question

HELP ASAP PLEASE!

The net for a triangular prism is shown below. What is the total surface area of the prism? 6.9 cm 8 cm 10 cm 8 cm 0 55.2 square centimeters 0 295.2 square centimeters 0 240 square centimeters 0 552 square centimeters​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The area of each rectangle is Length x width

Therefore Area of rectagle is 8cm x 10 cm=

A= 80 cm 2

There are three rectangles with the same measure so multiply the area by 3

80cm squared x 3= 240 cm 2

Now find the are of the triangle:

A- 1/2 x base x height

Base = 8cm

Height = 6.9 cm

A= (1/2) (8cm) (6.9cm)

A= (1/2) (55.2 cm squared)

A= 27.6 cm squared

Since there are two triangle faces with the same dimensions take the area and multiply it by 2

27.6 cm squared times 2 = 55/2 cm squared

Now add up the area of the rectangles and the area of the triangles.

Rectangles= 240 cm squared

Triangles 55.2 cm squared

240cm sq + 55.2 cm sq.= 295.2 cm squared
