Answer 1

To find the surface area of the rectangular prism represented by the net, we need to find the area of each face and then add them up.

Looking at the net:
- The two larger rectangles have dimensions 3 ft by 4 ft, so their combined area is 2 * (3 ft * 4 ft) = 24 ft^2
- The two smaller rectangles have dimensions 1 ft by 3 ft, so their combined area is 2 * (1 ft * 3 ft) = 6 ft^2
- The top and bottom faces are squares with dimensions 3 ft by 3 ft, so their combined area is 2 * (3 ft * 3 ft) = 18 ft^2

Now, add up all these areas:
24 ft^2 + 6 ft^2 + 18 ft^2 = 48 ft^2 + 18 ft^2 = 66 ft^2

Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism represented by the net is 66 ft^2.
