To find the surface area of the prism, we need to find the area of all six faces and then add them together.
The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is:
S.A. = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Given that L = 24 mm, W = 8 mm, and H = 32 mm:
S.A. = 2(24)(8) + 2(24)(32) + 2(8)(32)
S.A. = 384 + 1536 + 512
S.A. = 2432 mm²
Therefore, the surface area of the prism is 2432 mm².
If L = 24 mm, W = 8 mm, and H = 32 mm, what is the surface area of the prism?
