An illustration shows the unfolded version of a rectangular prism composed of 6 rectangles. There are four adjoining rectangles positioned horizontally. The first and third are similar and smaller. The second and fourth are similar and bigger. The first rectangle is unlabeled. The second rectangle shares the top and bottom sides with two similar rectangles, one on each side. The top rectangle is labeled as 9 centimeters on the bottom and 5 centimeters on the right side. The right most rectangle is labeled 8 cm vertically on the right side.

What is the surface area of the rectangular prism?

Answer 1

To find the surface area of the rectangular prism, we need to calculate the area of each of the six rectangles and then add them together.

Let's label the rectangles:

1. Front face: Unknown dimensions
2. Top face: 9 cm by 5 cm (45 square cm)
3. Right face: 8 cm by 5 cm (40 square cm)
4. Bottom face: Same dimensions as the top face (45 square cm)
5. Left face: Same dimensions as the right face (40 square cm)
6. Back face: Same dimensions as the front face (unknown)

Surface Area:
Front face: Unknown
Top face: 45 square cm
Right face: 40 square cm
Bottom face: 45 square cm
Left face: 40 square cm
Back face: Unknown

To find the surface area, we add the areas of all the faces together:

45 + 40 + 45 + 40 = 170 square cm

So, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 170 square cm.

4. Bottom face: Same dimensions as the top face (45 square cm)
5. Left face: Same dimensions as the right face (40 square cm)
6. Back face: Unknown

Surface Area:
Front face: Unknown
Top face: 45 square cm
Right face: 40 square cm
Bottom face: 45 square cm
Left face: 40 square cm
Back face: Unknown

To find the surface area, we add the areas of all the faces together:

45 + 40 + 45 + 40 = 170 square cm

So, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 170 square cm.

The surface area of the rectangular prism is 170 square cm.
