surface area of prisms. please help with the work shown because i can't figure out how to solve these :(
1 answer:
here: :)
I did the work, and basically i solved for the area of the faces and then multiplied that by two to get the total surface area of the faces. Then I added in the areas of the sides connecting the two faces:
just as a referral: the formulas to find the faces are as follows:
rectangle: length times width
circle: pi x r^2
trapezoid: h(base1 + base2)
and triangle: (b x h)/2

The normalcdf function on this calculator gives an area between a lower and upper limit. If the upper limit is more than about 8 standard deviations above the mean, the 10th decimal place is unaffected. Since the standard deviation here is about 5, we need to have an upper limit that is about 40 above the mean of about 30. We have chosen 80 as a nice round number and to give a little more margin.
