Answer:
Total surface area of the rectangular prism is 150.88 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
area of base = area of top
area of base = 5 x 3.1 = 15.5 cm^2
Area of small lateral surface having dimensions 3.1 cm x 7.4 cm is
=3.1 x 7.4 = 22.94 cm^2
Area of big lateral surface having dimensions 5 cm x 7.4 cm is
=5 x 7.4 = 37 cm^2
Total area of prism = 2 x 15.5 + 2 x 22.94 + 2 x 37 = 150.88 cm^2
total surface area of the rectangular prism is 150.88 cm^2
It will be greater than the length of the third side always
Total owed to the business = $100,000
