Answer: 96 square units

Step-by-step explanation: 5 surfaces added together: top & bottom bases, 3 more vertical faces

The areas of the triangular bases
(bh)/(2) = (6*2)/(2) =6 Two of them so 12 u²

Front face: 6×7 = 42 u²

Back faces: 3×7 = 21 u² .Two of those, so 42u²

Add those together: 12 + 42 + 42 = 96

Total surface area of the prism is 96 square units
