Given:
A prism with height 5 cm and equilateral triangular base with side 2 cm.
To find:
The total surface area of the prism.
Solution:
Area of an equilateral triangle is:

Where, a is the side length.
Putting
, we get




The base and top of the prism are congruent so their area must be equal.
The lateral surface area of the prism is:

Where, P is the perimeter of the base and h is the height of the prism.
The lateral surface area of the prism is:



Now, the total surface area is the sum of areas of bases and lateral surface area.




Therefore, the total surface area is 33.46 cm².
It is true that (x+2)(x+3) = x2 +5x + 6

This is the concept of algebra, given that the area of a rectangular pool is (15x-9), the possible dimensions of the pool by factoring will be:
Area=length×width
Area=(15x-9)
factoring the above we get:
Area=3(5x-3)
therefore the possible dimension will be:
length=5x units
width=3 units
