Question

A box in the shape of a triangular prism is painted for a project. Which formula would be used to find the lateral surface area of the triangular prism?

Answer 1

LSA = (a+b+c)×h

Explanation:

The formula that would be used to find the lateral surface area of the triangular prism = perimeter of base(P) × Height of prism(H)

Let us assume that three side of triangle are a, b, c and height of prism is h

Then lateral surface area of the prism can be LSA = (a+b+c)×h
