I'm pretty confused on surface area, hope someone can walk me through this problem, have a test in 2 days...
Answer:
Option C: 15 + 15 + 10 + 10 + 6 + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
given the following measurements:
length (L) = 5
width (W) = 3
height (H) = 2
To solve for the area of the given rectangular prism, you could use the following formula and plug in the given values:
A = 2(WL + HL + HW)
or
A = 2(WL) + 2(HL) + 2(HW)
A = 2[(3*5) + (2*5) + (2*3)]
A = 2(15) + 2(10) + 2(6)
which is the same as Option C: 15 + 15 + 10 + 10 + 6 + 6
Hope this helps you somehow :) Good luck on your upcoming test!
