Surface Area Unit Test5 of 15 5 of 15 ItemsQuestionFill 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. what .=+(S1+S2+S3)what

1 answer

The surface area of a triangular prism can be found using the following formula:

\[ \text{S.A.} = \text{Base Area} \times 2 + (\text{S1} + \text{S2} + \text{S3}) \times \text{Height} \]

Here is the filled-in version of your statement:

The surface area of a triangular prism is \[ \text{S.A.} = 2 \times \text{Base Area} + (\text{S1} + \text{S2} + \text{S3}) \times \text{Height} \]

Where:
- \(\text{Base Area}\) is the area of one of the triangular bases.
- \(S1, S2, S3\) are the lengths of the sides of the triangular base.
- \(\text{Height}\) is the distance between the two triangular bases (the length of the prism).

So, the blanks in your statement would be filled as follows:

\[ \text{S.A.} = 2 \times \text{Base Area} + (\text{S1} + \text{S2} + \text{S3}) \times \text{Height} \]
