Answer:

A = 24

Explanation:

We can see that the face of the given rectangular prism shows the width 4 and the height of 6. If we cut the figure at any point along the length 20, such that the cross section is parallel to the face, the cross section, which occurs at x length, will always have the same dimensions, that are 4 and 6.

So the area of the cross section which is parallel to the face of the given rectangular prism is given by:

A = 6 × 4

A = 24
