Mathematics and science go hand in hand. The branches of science which include: Physics, astronomy, chemistry, biology, etc. In all these fields you will find that you will have to use the mathematical principles and formulae to solve the numerical problems. So, science needs maths but maths does not need science.
First, convert 4 feet into inches - 48 inches. Then, divide 48 by 14 to get 3.43, so he can have 3 14-inch long pieces. To get the left over out of a foot, take 14 x 3 to get 42, then subtract 42 from your original 48 inches to get 6 inches left, which is half of a foot.
Surface Area of the figure is 1208 square centimeters
a=20
b=13
c=12
d=5
e=8
Top face:
A1=a×e=20×8
ae=160
Bottom face:
A2(a+2d)×e=(20+2×5)×8=(20+10)×8=30×8
(a+2d)e=240
Front face:
Rectangle
a×c=20×12=240
Triangle:
12c×d=12×12×5=6×5=30
A3Rectangle +2 triangles
240+2×30=240+60=300
(a+d)c=300
Slant face:
A4=b×e=13×8=104
be=104
Total surface area
A=A1+A2+2(A3+A4)
A1=160
A2=240
A3=300
A4=104
Thus,
A=160+240+2(300+104)
A=400+2(404)
A=400+808=1208
Surface Area of the figure is 1208 square centimeters
