To find the area of the rectangular prism from the net shown, we need to first identify the dimensions of each face.
Looking at the net, we can see that the rectangular prism has dimensions as follows:
- the base has dimensions of 6 units by 4 units
- the height of the prism is 3 units
To find the area of each face, we can calculate the following:
- Area of the base: (6 units) * (4 units) = 24 square units
- Area of the top: (6 units) * (4 units) = 24 square units
- Area of the front face: (6 units) * (3 units) = 18 square units
- Area of the back face: (6 units) * (3 units) = 18 square units
- Area of the left side face: (4 units) * (3 units) = 12 square units
- Area of the right side face: (4 units) * (3 units) = 12 square units
To find the total surface area of the rectangular prism, we sum up the areas of all the faces:
24 + 24 + 18 + 18 + 12 + 12 = 108 square units
Therefore, the area of the rectangular prism from the net shown is 108 square units.
Find the area of the rectangular prism from the net shown.
