Answer:

The answer is 230 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the bases, and the total of it is 280. I then subtracted 50 because the "covers" area is 50. That gives you the surface area without the cover

Answer:

230 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area is found by finding the area of each surface and adding them together.

The front and back faces have areas of 10(6) = 60 feet. There are two, so this is 2(60) = 120 square feet.

The right and left faces have areas of 5(6) = 30 feet. There are two, so this is 2(30) = 60 square feet.

The bottom face has an area of 10(5) = 50 feet.

This gives us a total area of 120+60+50 = 180+50 = 230 square feet.
