Question

Find the surface area of the rectangular prism

Answer 1

Front: 60 cm^2

Area = 6 x 10 = 60

Back: 60 cm^2

Area = 6 x 10 = 60

Right: 30 cm^2

Area = 3 x 10 = 30

Left: 30 cm^2

Area = 3 x 10 = 30

Bottom: 18 cm^2

Area = 6 x 3 = 18

TOTAL: 216 cm^2

Formula I used:

SA of a rectangular prism:

2 (lw + hl + w)

Just use the formula without the “lw”. After you used the formula, just solve for “lw” again and add it back to the final answer. This is because the upper part of the prism is not included.

Answer 2

Answer:

216 square cm

Brainliest, please!

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle has 6 sides. 2 are the same, 2 are the same, and the final 2 are the same.

(6 x 10) x 2 = 60 x 2 = 120 (Front + Back)

(3 x 6) x 2 = 18 x 2 = 36 (Top + Bottom)

(3 x 10) x 2 = 30 x 2 = 60 (Left + Right)

120 + 36 + 60 = 216 square cm
