Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a three dimensional composite figure formed by a triangular prism stacked on top of a rectangular prism. The top, right, and front faces are visible. The faces and edges that are not visible are indicated by dashed lines. The rectangular prism has a length of 32 meters, a width of 10 meters, and a height of 8 meters. The triangular prism has a rectangular base that is aligned on all edges with the rectangular prism below. The perpendicular height of the triangular prism is marked by a right angle symbol from the top vertex to the center of the triangular face. The height of the triangular face of the prism measures 12 meters. The sides of the triangular faces of the triangular prism measure 20 meters.
What is the total surface area of the figure?

Surface area of the rectangular prism:
- Front and back faces: 2 * length * height = 2 * 32 * 8 = 512 m^2
- Top and bottom faces: 2 * length * width = 2 * 32 * 10 = 640 m^2
- Left and right faces: 2 * width * height = 2 * 10 * 8 = 160 m^2
Total surface area of the rectangular prism = 512 + 640 + 160 = 1312 m^2
Surface area of the triangular prism:
- Base: Area of triangle = 0.5 * base * height = 0.5 * 20 * 12 = 120 m^2
- Three lateral faces: 3 * 20 * 8 = 480 m^2
Total surface area of the triangular prism = 120 + 480 = 600 m^2
Total surface area of the figure = total surface area of the rectangular prism + total surface area of the triangular prism
= 1312 + 600
= 1912 m^2.
Therefore, the total surface area of the figure is 1912 m^2.

= 1912 m^2.
Therefore, the correct total surface area of the figure is 1912 m^2. Thank you for your patience.

Surface area of the triangular prism:
Base: Area of triangle = 0.5 * base * height = 0.5 * 20 * 12 = 120 m^2
Lateral faces: 3 * (0.5 * base * side) = 3 * (0.5 * 20 * 8) = 240 m^2
Total surface area of the triangular prism: 120 + 240 = 360 m^2
Total surface area of the figure = total surface area of the rectangular prism + total surface area of the triangular prism
= 1312 + 360
= 1672 m^2
Therefore, the correct total surface area of the figure is 1672 m^2. Thank you for your patience.
