By definition of <em>surface</em> area and the <em>area</em> formulae for squares and rectangles, the <em>surface</em> area of the <em>composite</em> figure is equal to 166 square centimeters.
<h3>What is the surface area of a composite figure formed by two right prisms?</h3>
According to the image, we have a <em>composite</em> figure formed by two <em>right</em> prisms. The <em>surface</em> area of this figure is the sum of the areas of its faces, represented by squares and rectangles:
A = 2 · (4 cm) · (5 cm) + 2 · (2 cm) · (4 cm) + (2 cm) · (5 cm) + (3 cm) · (5 cm) + (5 cm)² + 4 · (3 cm) · (5 cm)
A = 166 cm²
