Answer:

144 cm²

Explanation:

There are five total sides to the triangular prism. The formula for the area of a rectangle is length · width. The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 base · height.

10 · 4 = 40

6 · 4 = 24

8 · 4 = 32

1/2(6 · 8) = 48/2 = 24

1/2(6 · 8) = 48/2 = 24

Add the surface area for each side to get the total surface area.

40 + 24 + 32 + 24 + 24 = 144 cm²
