To get the lateral surface area, dana will subtract the two base area from the total surface area.

<h3>Total surface area of rectangular prism</h3>

The total surface area of a rectangular prism is the sum of the areas of all of the faces or surfaces that enclose the solid. Therefore,

  • 2lw + 2wh + 2lh

where

l = length

w = width

h = height

<h3>Lateral surface area of a rectangular prism</h3>

The lateral surface area of a rectangular prism is the surface area of the solid without the bases.

Therefore,

  • LA =  2 ( l + w ) h

Total surface area = Lateral surface area + 2 (Base Area)

Total surface area =  2 (l + w) h + 2 (l x w) = 2lh + 2wh + 2lw

Therefore,

Lateral surface area = Total surface area - 2 (Base Area)

To get the lateral surface area, dana will subtract the two base area from the total surface area.

The 1st and 3rd choices are irrational.  The other 2 are rational.  Irrational numbers are numbers that you can't make a simple fraction out of.
