Surface area using nets Check out this rectangular prism 2 1 1 1 . 3 . 1 1 4 3

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Given the length, width and height find the volume, surface area and diagonal of a rectangular prism

h, l and w are known; find V, S and d

V = lwh

S = 2(lw + lh + wh)

d = √(l2 + w2 + h2)

2. Given the surface area, length and width find the height, volume and diagonal of a rectangular prism

S, l and w are known; find h, V and d

h = (S - 2lw) / (2l + 2w)

V = lwh

d = √(l2 + w2 + h2)

3. Given the volume, length and width find the height, surface area, and diagonal of a rectangular prism

V, l and w are known; find h, S and d

h = V / lw

S = 2(lw + lh + wh)

d = √(l2 + w2 + h2)

4. Given the diagonal, length and width find the height, volume and surface area of a rectangular prism

d, l and w are known; find h, V and S

h = √(d2 - l2 - w2)

V = lwh

S = 2(lw + lh + wh)

(Hope it helps)
