How is the process of finding the surface area of a rectangular prism the same as finding the surface area of a triangular prism

? How is it different?
ANSWER:
For both prisms, you can draw a net to help you find the areas of the faces. Add the areas together to find the surface area. A rectangular prism has only rectangular faces, and you use the formula bh to find area. A triangular prism has triangular and rectangular faces, and you use the area formula bh for rectangular faces and the area formula 1/2bh for triangular faces.

Answer:

for PLATO users

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the face of the rectangular prism as determined above is 7x2 − 7x + 3.

Area = length x depth

Length = area ÷ depth

Therefore, the length is (7x2 − 7x +3) ÷ (x + 4)

Using synthetic division, the coefficients of the polynomial are 7, −7, 3, and k = −4.

Therefore, the length of the rectangular prism is given by . 7x-35+143/x+4

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of a prism is given by the formula

SA=2B+PH

where

B is the area of the base

P is the perimeter of the base

H is the height of the prism

For both prism the formula is the same

How is it different?

Rectangular prism

The area of the base is given by the formula

A=LW -----> is the area of rectangle

where

L is the length and W is the width of rectangle

The perimeter of the base is given by

P=2(L+W) ---> is the perimeter of rectangle

The height H is the same in both cases

Triangular prism

The area of the base is given by the formula

A=\frac{1}{2} (b)(h) -----> is the area of the triangular base

where

b is the base of triangle and h is the height of triangle

The perimeter of the base is given by

P=(a+b+c) ---> is the perimeter of triangle

where

a, b and c are the length sides of triangle

The height H is the same in both cases

Answer:

m= 8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Points on the graph: ( -4, -4) and (1, 4)

Slope:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(4+4)/(1+4)

m= 8/5
