Question

Find the lateral area of the prism. Use the 10 by 6 rectangle as the base.

Answer 1

Answer:

lateral area =150 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

lateral area =(perimieter of prism base) times the height of the prism

so, the perimeter of the base is 9 ft*2 + 6 ft*2 which equals 30 ft

then you multiply the perimeter of the base by the height of the prism

so, height of prism =5 ft, so 5 ft times 30 ft =150 feet

therefor, the lateral area of the prism = 150 feet squared
