Answer:
a) 252 cm³, 252 cm², 705.6 g
b) 240 cm³, 252 cm², 672 g
Explanation:
The volume of each figure can be computed as the product of the base area (the side facing the viewer) and the "height" of the prism (the distance between bases).
The surface area of the prism is the sum of the two base areas and the "lateral area" consisting of the product of the base perimeter and the "height" of the prism.
The mass will be the product of volume and density.

ai) The base is a 3 cm by 8 cm rectangle together with a trapezoid with bases 3 cm and 6 cm, and height 7 - 3 = 4 cm.
B = (3 cm)(8 cm) +(1/2)(3 cm +6 cm)(4 cm) = 24 cm² +18 cm² = 42 cm²
The "height" is 6 cm, so the volume is ...
V = Bh = (42 cm²)(6 cm) = 252 cm³
__
aii) The perimeter of the base is the sum of its side lengths. Clockwise from left, the lengths are ...
(8 +3 +2 +5 +3 +7) cm = 28 cm
Then the lateral area is ...
LA = Ph = (28 cm)(6 cm) = 168 cm²
Adding this to the areas of the two bases, we get the total surface area:
A = LA +2B = (168 cm²) + 2(42 cm²) = 252 cm²
__
aiii) The mass is the product of volume and density:
M = ρV = (2.8 g/cm³)(252 cm³) = 705.6 g
____
bi) This trapezoidal prism has a base that has bases of 6 and 9 cm, and a height of 4 cm. The area of the base is ...
B = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h = (1/2)(6 cm + 9cm)(4 cm) = 30 cm²
Then the volume is ...
V = Bh = (30 cm²)(8 cm) = 240 cm³
__
bii) The lateral area is the perimeter of the base times the height of the prism:
LA = Ph = (4 +6 +5 +9 cm)(8 cm) = 192 cm²
The total area is this area plus that of the two bases:
A = LA +2B = (192 cm²) +2(30 cm²) = 252 cm²
__
biii) M = ρV = (2.8 g/cm³)(240 cm³) = 672 g
