From the setup of the problem, the "length of the top of the bookcase, measured along the attic ceiling" will be the hypotenuse of a right triangle, the length "AB". We have both the angle between AB and AC and the length of AC (3.24 meters), so we can use trigonometric identities.
The cosine of the 40 degree angle between AB and AC is equivalent to the length of AC divided by the length of AB. Equivalently, we have:

where "h", the hypotenuse, is the length we want. Rearranging the formula to solve for h we have that

which is 4.2295... meters. Converting to centimeters (multiplying by 100) we have that h = 422.95... centimeters, or if we round the value, h = 423 centimeters.

Answer:
The surface of the prism is 84m²
Step-by-step explanation:
You have 4 figures here (two the same triangles)
you need to determine the surface of each and then sum it to one. This will be your final surface.
rectangles:
3*6= 18m²
5*6 = 30m²
4*6 = 24m²
triangles:
You need to determine the square of the triangles from the Heron's formula.
Heron's formula states that the area of a triangle whose sides have lengths a, b, and c is
,
where s is the semi-perimeter of the triangle; that is,
.
So the permimeter of the triangle is
2p=4+5+3 = 12m
p = 6m
![S = \sqrt{p*(p-a)*(p-b)*(p-c)} = \sqrt{6*(6-3)*(6-4)*(6-5)} = \sqrt{6*3*2*1} =\sqrt{36} =6[m^{2} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7Bp%2A%28p-a%29%2A%28p-b%29%2A%28p-c%29%7D%20%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B6%2A%286-3%29%2A%286-4%29%2A%286-5%29%7D%20%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B6%2A3%2A2%2A1%7D%20%3D%5Csqrt%7B36%7D%20%3D6%5Bm%5E%7B2%7D%20%5D)
So the surface of the prism is a total sum of all surfaces:
P = 18m²+30m²+ 24m²+2*6m² = 84m²
