Question

Eddie built the ramp shown to train his puppy to do tricks. What is the surface area of the ramp. The dimensions are 20,20,20,23,25,25,15

Answer 1

3775 in²

Explanation:

The surface area of the ramp :

Area of rectangle = 20 * 23 = 460 in²

Area of rectangle = 20 * 23 = 460 in²

Area of rectangle = 25 * 23 = 575 in²

Bottom rectangle = 60 * 23 = 1380 in²

For the trapezium: (front and rear)

1/2 (base 1 + base 2) * height

Base total = 20+ 20+ 20= 60

1/2(60)*15 = 450 in²

Total surface Area :

(460 + 460 + 575 + 1380 + 450 + 450) in² = 3775 in²
