Mr. VanNevel makes rectangular glass aquariums with glass tops. The aquariums measure 12 in by 6 in by 8 in. a.) draw a net and find the total surface area
I know there are no photos allowed on the website but if you can try to explain this it would be great.
Thanks!

just unfold the sides and add up the areas of the rectangles.
L = 12 in.
W = 6 in.
h = 8 in.
As = 2(W*h) + 2(L*W) + 2(L*h) = Surface area.
W = 6 in.
h = 8 in.
As = 2(W*h) + 2(L*W) + 2(L*h) = Surface area.
