Formula to find the surface area of a triangular prism
1 answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In the mensuration of a triangular prism we can find the total surface area by solving for the areas of individual shape.
The triangular prism consist of
1. three rectangular surfaces
2. two triangular surfaces.
Hence the total surface area is the sum of the areas of the rectangular surface
=
and the sum of all areas of triangular surfaces
=
<u><em>In summary just find the area of each shape and add them together.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:
Divide two on both sides to get rid of it and the make the equation in the form y = mx + c
y = 3/2x + 5
since both lines are parallel they must have the same gradient which is 3/2
y = 3/2x + c
All you have to do now is to replace x and y with (2, -5) to find c
x = 2
y = -5
-5 = 3/2 × 2 + c
-5 = 3 + c
c = -5-3
c = -8
