Answer 1

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Base area = (base x width) = 20 x 18 = 360 cm^2

Base perimeter = (base + width) x 2 = (20 + 18) x 2 = 76 cm

lateral surface = (base perimeter x height) = 76 x 15 = 1140 cm^2

Surface area = (base area x 2) + lateral surface = (360 x 2) + 1140= 1860 cm^2

surface area of a single prism = 1860 / 2 = 930 cm^2
