Answer:

62 units

Explanation:

A solid is composed of squares and equilateral triangles. Its net is shown below:

A triangular prism and its net are shown. The net is three squares with side length 4 units. Attached above and below the middle square are equal sized triangles.

The area of each triangle is 7 square units. The surface area of the triangular prism is _____ square units

surface area = area of squares x area of triangles

area of square = length²

4² = 16

there are 3 squares, total area = 16 x 3 = 48

there are 2 triangles = 2x 7 = 14

14 + 48 = 62
