Fill in the blanks to complete the formula for the surface area of a triangular prism. (1 point)

The surface area of a triangular prism is S.A.=___
+(S1+S2+S3) ___

There's two blanks, one right after the " = " sign and another RIGHT after "(S1+S2+S3)"

1 answer

The surface area of a triangular prism can be expressed as:

\( S.A. = \text{Base Area} + (S1 + S2 + S3) \)

So, the complete formula would be:

The surface area of a triangular prism is \( S.A. = \text{Base Area} + (S1 + S2 + S3) \), where \( S1, S2, \) and \( S3 \) are the areas of the three rectangular faces.
