<u>Given</u>:
The base of each triangular base is 42 m.
The height of each triangular base is 20 m.
The sides of the triangle are 29 m each.
The height of the triangular prism is 16 m.
We need to determine the surface area of the triangular prism.
<u>Surface area of the triangular prism:</u>
The surface area of the triangular prism can be determined using the formula,
where b is the base of the triangle,
h is the height of the triangle,
s₁, s₂ and s₃ are sides of the triangle and
H is the height of the prism.
Substituting the values, we get;
Thus, the surface area of the triangular prism is 2440 m²
Answer:
The surface area of the prism is 72 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to calculate the surface area of the prism we must calculate the area of each face of the prism. To better visualize it we can look at the picture below. We must calculate the area of every face in the picture, so we have:
surface area = 2*[(1/2)*3*4] + 3*5 + 4*5 + 5*5
surface area = 12 + 15 + 20 + 25
surface area = 72 square units
