Answer:

B=.5*8*6=.5*48=24

h = 8

P=10+6+8=24

Surface area =2*24+24*8=48+192=240

Explanation:

The base is a triangle, and the area of a triangle is 1/2 base (or width) times height (or length). In this case, base is 8 and height is 6, so the area can be found either by multiplying .5*8*6 or by dividing 8*6 by 2, either of which will give you the same answer of B=24.

Height is given, h=8.

Perimeter is simply the sum of the sides, which are given, so the perimeter is 8+6+10=24.

The formula for surface area is given, so all you need to do is plug in your previous answers and you've got it!
