The missing image from the problem is attached
The answer is (C) Each of the lateral faces has an area of 464 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Base is a square that is 32 in
The height of one of the 4 lateral faces is 29 in
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Base is L*W --> 32*32 = 1024 square inches
(1) Lateral face is 1/2*b*h = 0.5*32*29 = 464 square inches
----------------------------------------------------------------
Since the answers are about the face and/or one lateral face only, those two numbers are important. (C) is the only answer that matches
