Someone please help me with the surface area
Someone please help me with the surface area
Surface are just means that you need to find the area of every face, then add.
TO find the Area of the rectangle do 168 = 128
For the triangle the area formula is bh1/2 So do 78*1/2= 28
There are four sides total and two triangles and two rectangles so 28+28+128+128= 312
SO the surface area is 312 in cubed
To find the Surface Area of a Triangular based prism you need to use the following formula: SA= bXh÷2 X H (of the prism)
In the question you have shown, the height is 8in, the base is 7in, and the height of the prism is 16in
so SA= 7X8÷2X16
= 448in^2
Therefore the Surface Area is 448in^2. Hope that helped!!
