Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the Triangular prism = 1/2 (base*height*length)
<span>V = 1/2 (2 * 2 * 5) </span>
<span>V = 10 cubic inches. </span>
<span>For the surface area, you can divide the prism into parts: </span>
<span>It's made of three rectangles and two equal triangles. </span>
<span>For the two triangles: </span>
<span>The area of each of the triangles is 1/2(base x height) </span>
<span>Area of each triangles = 1/2 (2 * 5) </span>
<span>Area of each triangles = 5 inches^2. </span>
<span>For the three rectangles: </span>
<span>* one is equal to base x length, </span>
<span>Rectangle1 = 2 x 5 </span>
<span>Rectangle1 = 10 inches^2. </span>
<span>* another is equal to side 1 x length </span>
<span>Rectangle2 = 3 x 5 </span>
<span>Rectangle2 = 15 inches^2 </span>
<span>* and the last is equal to side 2 x length. </span>
<span>Rectangle3 = 3 x 5 </span>
<span>Rectangle3 = 15 inches^2 </span>
<span>Adding all the components up, </span>
<span>10 + 15 + 15 + 5 + 5 = 50 inches^2 </span>
<span>Therefore, the surface area of the prism is greater than volume 50 > 10
hpe this helps:)</span>
