Correct option B) 360 square inches .

Explanation:

Here we have , A prism is made up of 3 rectangles and 2 triangles. A rectangle has base of 12 and height of 10. A rectangle has base of 10 and height of 13. A rectangle has base of 10 and height of 5. 2 triangles have a base of 12 inches and height of 5 inches. We need to find What is the surface area of the prism in square inches . Let's find out:

3 rectangles and 2 triangles

A rectangle has base of 12 and height of 10 :


Area = length(width)


Area =12(10)


Area =120

A rectangle has base of 10 and height of 13


Area = length(width)


Area =13(10)


Area =130

A rectangle has base of 10 and height of 5


Area = length(width)


Area =5(10)


Area =50

2 triangles have a base of 12 inches and height of 5 inches.


Area = (1)/(2)base(height)(2)


Area =12(5)


Area =60

Hence , Total Area :


120+130+50+60


360in^2

Correct option B) 360 square inches .
