A prism and two nets are shown below: Image of a right triangular prism and 2 nets. The triangle bases have base 4, height 3, an
d diagonal side 5. The length of the prism from the bases is 8.6. Net A has 3 rectangles in a row. The middle one has sides AC and CD. This middle one has triangle ABC on top and identical triangle below. Net B is the same except that the triangle base ABC is on top of the last rectangle which has sides AC and CD. Units are in inches. Part A: Which is the correct net for the prism? Explain your answer. (2 points) Part B: Write the measurements of Sides AB, BC, and CD of the correct net. (4 points) Part C: What is the surface area of the prism? Show your work. (4 points)
We know that d = 2r
where,
r - radius
d - diameter
Since it is given that d = 8 inches = 20.32 cm
Therefore,
radius ( r ) = d/2
= 8/2
= 4 inches
= 10.16 cm //
To do this, you can multiply the base (l * w) by the height to determine the volume. This would be 36*10=360. Then remember that it is a 3 dimensional shape, so the valume is cubed.
