To find the surface area of a rectangular prism, you need to calculate the area of all 6 sides and then add them together.
Let's assume the rectangular prism has dimensions:
Length = 5 cm
Width = 4 cm
Height = 3 cm
The formula to find the surface area of a rectangular prism is:
2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Area of the rectangular prism:
2(5*4) + 2(5*3) + 2(4*3) = 2(20) + 2(15) + 2(12) = 40 + 30 + 24 = 94 cm^2
So, the correct answer is not given in the options provided.
Use the net to find the surface area of the rectangular prism.
