Question

Find the surface area of the prism. 3in , 8in ,5in.

Answer 1

158 in.

Explanation:

Surface area of a prism = Area of all the faces added together

So, Face 1 & 2 = 5 x 80 = 40 x 2 = 80

Face 3 & 4 = 8 x 3 = 24 x 2 = 48

Face 5 & 6 = 5 x 3 = 15 x 2 = 30

Therefore, adding them together makes:

80 + 48 + 30 = 158 in.
