Answer:

Area = 28 cm² (check the attached diagram for better clarity)

Explanation:

The question is incomplete but let's see a similar example

The front of a rectangular pyramid can refer to either one of two possibilities: it could be either the side that has the breadth and the height or the side that has the length and the height. In this case, we were given the formula for calculating the area of the front face of this rectangular prism as the product of breadth and height

Mathematically,

A = bh

From the attached diagram, we will see the properties of the rectangular prism as:

length = 5 cm, breadth = 4 cm, height = 7 cm

To calculate for the front face, we use A = bh,

⇒ A = 4 * 7 = 28 cm²

Example 2

If the breadth of the rectangular prism is 2 cm and the height is 3 cm, we have:

A = 2 * 3 = 6 cm²

What is the area of the front of the rectangular prism? Area = cm2 Area=BH 6 CM, 3 CM-example-1
