The surface area of a right rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula:
Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height of the prism.
In this case, the edge length measures 12.75 cm for all three dimensions.
So, the length (l) = 12.75 cm, the width (w) = 12.75 cm, and the height (h) = 12.75 cm.
Plugging these values into the formula:
Surface Area = 2 * 12.75 * 12.75 + 2 * 12.75 * 12.75 + 2 * 12.75 * 12.75
Surface Area = 2 * 162.5625 + 2 * 162.5625 + 2 * 162.5625
Surface Area = 325.125 + 325.125 + 325.125
Surface Area = 975.375 cm²
Therefore, the surface area of the right rectangular prism with each edge length measuring 12.75 cm is 975.375 cm².
Use the formula to determine the surface area of a right rectangular prism where each edge length measures 12.75 cm.
