To find the total surface area of the toy truck, we need to calculate the surface area of each individual component (cab and shipping container) and then add them together.
Surface area of the cab:
Front and back faces: 2(11in x 3in) = 66 sq in
Top and bottom faces: 2(11in x 6in) = 132 sq in
Side faces: 2(3in x 6in) = 36 sq in
Total surface area of the cab = 66 + 132 + 36 = 234 sq in
Surface area of the shipping container:
Front and back faces: 2(6in x 2in) = 24 sq in
Top and bottom faces: 2(11in x 2in) = 44 sq in
Side faces: 2(6in x 11in) = 132 sq in
Total surface area of the shipping container = 24 + 44 + 132 = 200 sq in
Total surface area of the toy truck = 234 sq in (cab) + 200 sq in (shipping container) = 434 sq in
Therefore, the total surface area of the toy truck is 434 sq in.
A toy truck is being comprised of a rectangular cab and a shipping container that it is carrying. What is the total surface area of the truck
