Answer:

192 km²

Explanation:

Surface Area of the triangular prism = 2(Base Area) + Perimeter of Base*height of the prism

✔️Base Area = ½*bh

b = 6 km

h = 8 km

Base area = ½*6*8 = 24 km²

✔️Perimeter of base = 6 + 8 + 10 = 24 km

✔️Height of prism = 6 km

Plug in the values into the equation:

Surface area = 2(24) + 24*6 = 48 + 144

Surface area = 192 km²
