Answer:

169 cm^2

Explanation:

Right surface (rectangle)

A = LW = 7 cm * 5 cm = 35 cm^2

Left surface (hidden rectangle)

A = LW = 7 cm * 5 cm = 35 cm^2

Bottom surface (hidden rectangle)

A = LW = 9 cm * 5 cm = 45 cm^2

Front face = back face = 2 * triangle

A = 2 * bh/2 = 2 * 9 cm * 6 cm/2 = 54 cm^2

total surface area = 35 cm^2 + 35 cm^2 + 45 cm^2 + 54 cm^2 = 169 cm^2
