What is the surface area of the right rectangular prism?

<h3>Answer:  Choice A) 252 in^2</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below.

The red rectangle is 6 inches by 12 inches, so its area is 6*12 = 72 square inches. There are two of these rectangles (one on top, one on the bottom). That accounts for 2*72 = 144 square inches so far.

The purple rectangles are 3 inches by 12 inches, yielding an area of 3*12 = 36 square inches each. That's another 2*36 = 72 square inches when we account for the front and back purple rectangles.

The green rectangles are 6 inches by 3 inches. Each green rectangle is 6*3 = 18 square inches. Having two of them means we'll add on 2*18 = 36 square inches.

Overall, the entire surface area is the sum of all the areas we calculated: 144+72+36 = 252 square inches, which is choice A

-------------------------

Alternative Method:

  • L = 12 = length
  • W = 6 = width
  • H = 3 = height

SA = surface area of the rectangular prism

SA = 2*(L*W + L*H + W*H)

SA = 2*(12*6 + 12*3 + 6*3)

SA = 2*(72 + 36 + 18)

SA = 2*(126)

SA = 252 in^2

So we get the same answer either way

The picture below illustrates a special type of conic section called
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture below illustrates a hyperbola.

The intersecting plane does not pass through the vertex of a right circular cone (the vertex of the cone is the point where two nappes meet).

As you can see from the diagram, the plane intersects both nappes of a right circular cone.

Hence, correct option is option A: The plane does not pass through the vertex and intersects both nappes of a right circular cone.

Solve for x. Write the smaller solution first, and the larger solution second.
vekshin1

Answer:

x=-4.73   x=-1.27

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 3)^2 - 3 = 0

Add 3 to each side

(x + 3)^2 - 3 +3= 0+3

(x + 3)^2 = 3

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x + 3)^2) =±sqrt( 3)

(x + 3) =±sqrt( 3)

Subtract 3 from each side

x + 3-3 =-3±sqrt( 3)

x = -3±sqrt( 3)

Approximating to 2 decimal places

x=-1.27 x=-4.73
