The net of a triangular prism is shown. Use the ruler provided to measure the dimensions of the net to the nearest half centimet
er. What is the total surface area of the rectangular prism in square centimeters?
1 answer:
If the area of the triangle and the rectangle is 4 square cm and 2 square cm. Then the total surface area of the triangular prism will be 14 square cm.
<h3>What is a triangular prism?</h3>A closed solid with two parallel triangular bases joined by a rectangle surface is known as a triangular prism.
The total surface area of the triangular prism will be
Total surface area = 2(area of the triangle) + 3(area of the rectangle)
The area of the rectangle will be
Rectangle area = 2 x 1
Rectangle area = 2 square cm
The area of the triangle will be
Triangle area = 0.5 x 4 x 2
Triangle area = 4 square cm
Then the total surface area will be
Total surface area = 2 x 4 + 3 x 2
Total surface area = 8 + 6
Total surface area = 14 square cm
