Answer 1

Hey there! :)

Answer:

A. 108 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of each face using the dimensions 4, 3 and 6. Remember, there are 6 total faces with 3 sets of congruent faces. The faces are rectangular, so the formula A = l × w will be used to solve for the area of each:

2(4 ·3) = 2(12) = 24 ft²

2(4· 6) = 2(24) = 48 ft²

2(3 · 6) = 2(18) = 36ft².

Add up the areas of the faces:

24 + 48 + 36 = 108 ft².

Answer 2

Answer:

A) 108 sq ft

Step-by-step explanation:

SA = PH + 2LW

P = 2(L + W)

SA = 2(L + W)H + 2LW

SA = 2(4 ft + 3 ft)(6 ft) + 2(4 ft)(3 ft)

SA = 108 sq ft
