Answer:
1296mm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism to the left on top of the box:
Area of square = lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm, then multiply by 2 because 2 of the squares are a part of the surface, giving <u>162mm^2</u>
Area of a rectangle =lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm, then multiply by 2 again, because 2 rectangles are a part of the surface, giving <u>162mm^2</u>
So, the total surface area of the rectangular prism to the left on top, is 324mm^2
Surface Area of the Triangular Prism:
Area of a triangle: 1/2bh, and our base length would be 12, because we have to subtract 9 from 21 since the base length of the triangle isn't stated. Anyways, A = 1/2bh, so A = 1/2(12)(9) = 54mm^2, but multiply by two, so we get <u>108mm^2</u>.
Area of the rectangle: lw, so 15mm * 9mm = <u>135mm^2</u>
So, the total surface area of the triangular prism is 243mm^2
Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism at the bottom:
Area of the long rectangles in front = lw, 21mm * 9mm = 189mm^2, multiply by 2, <u>378mm^2</u>
Area of the rectangles to the side = lw, 9mm * 9mm = 81mm^2, multiply by 2, <u>162mm^2 </u>
Area of the rectangle at the very bottom = lw, 21mm * 9mm = <u>189mm^2</u>
So, the total surface area of the rectangular prism at the bottom is 729mm^2
Add all the total surface areas of each shape to get the total surface area of the figure:
324mm^2 + 243mm^2 + 729mm^2 = 1296mm^2
The surface area of the figure above is 1296mm^2

, well, low and behold, since that equation is in slope-intercept form already, we can see is just 1/3.
