Surface area = base area + lateral area.
Base area = 10·7 = 70.
Lateral area = 2·(1/2·10·7) + 2·(1/2·7·8) = 10·7 + 7·8 = 70 + 56 = 126.
Total surface area = 70 + 126 = 196 ft².
Base area = 10·7 = 70.
Lateral area = 2·(1/2·10·7) + 2·(1/2·7·8) = 10·7 + 7·8 = 70 + 56 = 126.
Total surface area = 70 + 126 = 196 ft².
