Answer 1

The amount of wrapping paper needed to wrap a triangular prism container is equal to the surface area of the container.

The formula for the surface area of a triangular prism is:
Surface area = 2(base area) + (perimeter of base x height)

Since we are given that the container is in the shape of a triangular prism, we can calculate the surface area using the given dimensions.

Without the specific dimensions of the container, we cannot calculate the exact amount of wrapping paper needed. Therefore, none of the provided responses can be determined as correct.
