What is the surface area of the rectangular prism? (1 point) in.2

1 answer

To calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism, you need to find the areas of all six faces and then add them together.

Let's assume the length, width, and height of the rectangular prism are 5 inches, 3 inches, and 4 inches respectively.

The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is:

Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

Now, plug in the values:

Surface Area = 2(5)(3) + 2(5)(4) + 2(3)(4)
Surface Area = 30 + 40 + 24
Surface Area = 94 in²

Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 94 in².
