To find the area of the side walls you need to paint in a rectangular room, you can use the following formula:
1. **Calculate the perimeter of the room’s walls.**
The perimeter \( P \) of the room can be calculated as:
\[
P = 2 \times (length + width) = 2 \times (12 \text{ ft} + 14 \text{ ft}) = 2 \times 26 \text{ ft} = 52 \text{ ft}
\]
2. **Calculate the area of the walls.**
To find the total area of the walls, you can multiply the perimeter by the height of the ceiling \( h \):
\[
\text{Area} = P \times h = 52 \text{ ft} \times 10 \text{ ft} = 520 \text{ square feet}
\]
So, the area you need to paint is **520 square feet**.
