Question

Figure 1 is a square pyramid. Figure 2 is a right triangular prism.

Answer 1

Answer:

the answer is

The surface area of Figure 1 is 10.2 square centimeters Less than the surface area of Figure 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Figure 1

area of a square = s2

=9squared

=81 sq cm

area of triangle = 1/2 bh

=1/2 (9cm) (14cm)

=63 sq. cm

find surface area

SA = 81 sq. cm + 4(63 sq. cm)

SA = 81 sq. cm + 252 sq. cm

SA = 333 sq. cm

Figure 2 Calculation

area of rectangle = lw

a = (12cm) (8 cm)

a = 96 sq. cm

area of triangle = 1/2 bh

=1/2 (8 cm) (6.9 cm)

= 27.6 sq. cm

total surface are of figure 2

SA = 3 (96 sq.cm) + 2 (27.6 sq. cm)

SA = 288 sq. cm + 55.2 sq. cm

SA = 343.2 sq. cm

find the difference between figure 1 and figure 2

343.2 sq. cm - 333 sq. cm = 10.2 sq. cm
