Question

BRAIILEST IF CORRECT

The surface area of the prism is _____ square units. All measurements in the image below are in units. (Input whole number only.)

A triangular prism is shown with 2 right triangular sides having legs 4 and 3 and hypotenuse 5. The length of the prism is 4.5

Answer 1

54 and here is why..

Explanation:

In order to calculate the surface are of the prims, you have to calculate the area of each face of the prism, also you have to remember the different formulas to calculate the areas:

Rectangle will be (Length x Width) and

Triangle will be (Base x Height / 2)

SOOO, You just have to insert the values into formulas:

Rectangle1 = 4 x 3.5

Rectangle1 = 14

Rectangle 2 = 5 x 3.5

Rectangle 2 = 17.5

Rectangle 3 = 3 x 3.5

Rectangle 3 = 10.5

Triangle 1 = 4 x 3 / 2

Triangle 1 = 6

Triangle 2 = 4 x 3 / 2

Triangle 2 = 6

SOoo again, if you add all the faces, you get the surface area of the prims:

14+17.5+10.5+6+6=54

I hope this help you my friend, have a good day
