Question

Find surface area and no the answer is not 60​

Answer 1

The formula for calculating the surface area of a cuboid is

$A = 2lw + 2hw + 2lh$

where $l$ = length, $w$ = width, $h$ = height

Let's calculate

$A = (2 \times 6 \times 2) + (2 \times 5 \times 2) + (2 \times 6 \times 5)\\A = 104m^{2}$

Answer 2

Answer:

104 m

Step-by-step explanation:

[] Surface area is the area of the surface. In other words, we will need to find the area of 6 rectangles and then add them together.

-> Since it is a rectangular prism, it will have three pairs of sides that are congruent. We can find the area of one of the sides and multiply it by two for all 6 as shown below. Then we just need to simplify.

2 (2 * 5) + 2 (6 * 5) + 2 (6 * 2)

2 (10) + 2 (30) + 2 (12)

20 + 60 + 24

80 + 24

104

104 m

[] Why is it not 60?

-> 60 is the area of the figure, not the surface area
