Assuming the volume of a trigonal prism, who has a side of 10cm and a length of 20 cm, is 866cm^3, what is its surface area?
1 answer:
The surface area of the triangular prism is 686.6 cm².
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The volume of a triangular prism can be determined by multiplying its area of the triangular base with the length of the prism.
The base triangle has a base length of 10 cm and assume it has a height of h m.
The volume of the prism
The height of the triangle is 8.66 cm.
Step 2:
The surface area of the triangle is obtained by adding all the areas of the shapes in the prism. There are 2 triangles and 3 rectangles in a triangular prism.
The triangles have a base length of 10 cm and a height of 8.66 cm. A triangles area is half the product of its base length and height.
The rectangles all have a length of 20 cm and a width of 10 cm. The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width.
The area of the 2 triangles
The area of the 3 rectangle
Step 3:
The surface area of the triangular prism
The surface area of the prism is 686.6 cm².

Equivalent/Equal ratios<em> - Definition of Equivalent Ratio A ratio can be represented as a fraction. The concept of an equivalent ratio is similar to the concept of equivalent fractions. A ratio that we get either by multiplying or dividing by the same number, other than zero, to the antecedent and the consequent of a ratio is called an equivalent ratio.</em>
