the surface area of the right triangular prism is 864 . Correct option D. 864

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have The net of the triangular prism is shown below . We need to find What is the surface area of the right triangular prism . Let's find out:

We have two same triangles , with area =
(1)/(2)(base)(height)


(1)/(2)(12)(8)(2) { 2 is multiplied as there are 2 triangles }


96

Now , We have 3 rectangles two of which are same have parameters as :


length=24\\breadth=10

So , area of two rectangles


2(length(width))


2(24(10))


480

And area of other rectangle is :


length(width)


24(12)


288

So , total area = 288+480+96=864

Therefore , the surface area of the right triangular prism is 864 . Correct option D. 864

(D) 864 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Base, b = 12cm

Height, h = 8 cm

Hypotenuse, s = 10cm

Length, l = 24 cm

Surface area, A = ?

We know:

Surface area = bh + 2ls + lb


A = 12X8 + 2X24X10 + 24X12\\\\A = 96 + 480 + 288\\\\A = 864 cm^2
