Find the surface area. Show work.
2 answers:
Hi there i just finished learning this!! anyways here’s the solution for the problem i also drew it as a net incase you’re a visual learner:) here is the formula for finding the area of a rectangle and a triangle if you need it:
: A=bh x height
rectangle: l x w=A
since a triangular prism is made up of 3 rectangles and 2 triangles, add up the answers of their multiplied numbers and it equals the SA. (total SA of you problem is 746)

(a) Length of the height is 2.732 m
(b) Length of the base is 5.466 m
<u>Explanation:</u>
An image is attached for reference.
(a)
In ΔAOB,
In ΔBGD,
According to the figure, BG = OE = 1.732 m
Height of the tent, AE = AO + OE
= 1 m + 1.732 m
= 2.732 m
(b)
DF = ?
In ΔAOB,
According to the figure, OB = GE = 1.733 m
In ΔBGD,
According to the figure, DE = DG + GE
DE = 1 m + 1.733 m
DE = 2.733 m
Length of the base, DF = 2 X DE
DF = 2 X 2.733 m
DF = 5.466 m
