Answer:
The surface area is [tex]1,536\ ft^{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The surface area is equal to
[tex]SA=B+PH[/tex]
where
B is the area of the ceiling
P is the perimeter of the base
H is the height of the walls
substitute the given values
[tex]SA=(20)(24)+2(20+24)(12)[/tex]
[tex]SA=480+1,056=1,536\ ft^{2}[/tex]
