Question

What is the surface area of the prism in square inches? A rectangular prism has a height of 2 inches, width of 8 inches, and depth of 11 inches.

Answer 1

252 square inches

Explanation:

The surface area of a rectangular prism is given by:

A = 2 * (x * y) + 2 * (x * z) + 2 * (y * z)

where,

x, y, z: are the sides of the rectangular prism

Substituting values we have:

A = 2 * (2 * 8) + 2 * (2 * 11) + 2 * (8 * 11)

A = 252 in ^ 2

Answer is 252 square inches

Answer 2

The surface area of a rectangular prism is given by:

A = 2 * (x * y) + 2 * (x * z) + 2 * (y * z)

where,

x, y, z: are the sides of the rectangular prism

Substituting values we have:

A = 2 * (2 * 8) + 2 * (2 * 11) + 2 * (8 * 11)

A = 252 in ^ 2

Answer:

The surface area of the prism in square inches is:

252 square inches
