Answer: The area of the rectangular prism would be S.A. = 66m²

Step-by-step explanation: :)

What is the surface area of this rectangular prism?

A rectangular prism is a three-dimensional shape that has two at the top and bottom and four are lateral faces. The surface area of this rectangular prism = l x b

We have given

4 rectangles with area

A₁ = 3m × 4m = 12 m²

2 rectangles with area

A₂ = 3m × 3m = 9 m²

Therefore the Surface Area of the rectangular prism is:

S.A. = 4A₁ + 2A₂

S.A. = 4(12) + 2(9)

= 48 + 18

= 66

Hence, the net surface area of the rectangular prism would be 66 meters sq.
