Can someone simply explain how to find the area of a triangular prism ? step by step ^^;
1 answer:
The formula:
A = bh + L (s1 + s2 + s3)
A: area
b: base
h: height
L: length
s1: side 1 (cross-sectional area)
s2: side 2 (cross-sectional area)
s3: side 3 (cross-sectional area)
Here’s an example (see attached image)
A = (4 x 6) + (12 x [7 + 7 + 4])
A = (24) + (12 x 18)
A = 24 + 216
A = 240cm^2
I hope this helped? Comment if you need more explanation or anything!

Answer:
Lourdes has more brownies.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to find a common denominator. Whatever you do to the bottom of the fraction you do to the top. 5/6 and 4/5 has a common denominator of 30. Multiply both digits in 5/6 by 5. Then multiply both digits in 4/5 by 6. Then you can compare the fractions. With the common denominators, Lourdes should have 25/30 brownies and Zachary has 24/30. Compare.
24/30 < 25/30. So Lourdes has the most brownies!
