To find the surface area of the letter C, we need to find the surface area of each individual side and then add them all together.
1. Top and bottom sides:
Area = 10 feet * 1 foot = 10 square feet (x2 for top and bottom) = 20 square feet
2. Front and back sides:
Area = 15 feet * 1 foot = 15 square feet (x2 for front and back) = 30 square feet
3. Side of the letter C:
Area = (15 feet * 4 feet) + (7 feet * 4 feet) = 68 square feet
Total surface area of the letter C:
20 square feet (top and bottom) + 30 square feet (front and back) + 68 square feet (side) = 118 square feet
Therefore, the surface area of the letter C sculpture in Los Cabos, Mexico is 118 square feet.
1. Top and bottom sides:
Area = 10 feet * 1 foot = 10 square feet (x2 for top and bottom) = 20 square feet
2. Front and back sides:
Area = 15 feet * 1 foot = 15 square feet (x2 for front and back) = 30 square feet
3. Side of the letter C:
Area = (15 feet * 4 feet) + (7 feet * 4 feet) = 68 square feet
Total surface area of the letter C:
20 square feet (top and bottom) + 30 square feet (front and back) + 68 square feet (side) = 118 square feet
Therefore, the surface area of the letter C sculpture in Los Cabos, Mexico is 118 square feet.
