Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is </em></u>
Find the lateral area and surface area of a rectangular prism. The base is a square 5.5 ft by 5.5 ft, and the height is 10 ft
Part 1) Find the lateral area
The lateral area of a rectangular prism is equal to
where
P is the perimeter of the base
h is the height of the prism
we have
---> the perimeter of a square
---> is given
substitute
Part 2) Find the surface area
The surface area of a rectangular prism is equal to
where
LA is the lateral area
B is the area of the base
we have
----> area of a square
substitute

remember
(x^m)/(x^n)=x^(m-n)
and
(x^m)^n=x^(mn)
and
(xyz)^m=(x^m)(y^m)(z^m)
and
(m/n)^a=(m^a)/(n^a)
and
x^-n=1/(x^n)
