Answer:
<h3><u>Question 7</u></h3>
<u>Lateral Surface Area</u>
The bases of a triangular prism are the triangles.
Therefore, the Lateral Surface Area (L.A.) is the total surface area excluding the areas of the triangles (bases).

<u>Total Surface Area</u>
Area of the isosceles triangle:

Total surface area:

<u>Volume</u>

<h3><u>Question 8</u></h3>
<u>Lateral Surface Area</u>
The bases of a hexagonal prism are the pentagons.
Therefore, the Lateral Surface Area (L.A.) is the total surface area excluding the areas of the pentagons (bases).

<u>Total Surface Area</u>
Area of a pentagon:

where a is the side length.
Therefore:

Total surface area:

<u>Volume</u>

-- The area of the long skinny piece on top is (6 x 33) = 198
-- The length of the dotted line between the top and bottom pieces is (33-21) = 12
-- The area of the bottom piece is (12 x 15) = 180
-- The area of the whole thing is (198 + 180) = 378
-- The perimeter of the whole thing is (33 + 6 + 21 + 15 + 12 + 15 + 6) = 108
Answer: It would be a Constant variable.
Hope this helps!
