A carpenter decided he is going to build a stairway as shown below using four steps which are all the same height. He needs to paint the tops and front of each step of the staircase that is shown. How much surface area, in cubic meters, will he need to paint? Complete each portion of the table. Be sure to show all work including formulas and substitution in the formulas. Add an additional slide if needed.(Hint: He will not need to paint the sides, bottom, or back of the stairs. Extra hint -- Think about it: if you looked at it from a top view and a front view, what would you see?
