Math Problem Statement

Find the surface area of each rectangular prism.

Solution

The image shows various problems related to finding the surface area of rectangular prisms. The surface area formula for a rectangular prism is:

SA=2lw+2lh+2whSA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

Where:

  • ll is the length,
  • ww is the width, and
  • hh is the height.

Each problem seems to use different dimensions for the prisms.

Would you like me to explain a specific problem from the image or help with solving one of them?

Here are five related questions that might help further:

  1. How do you apply the surface area formula for a rectangular prism with different dimensions?
  2. Can surface area formulas change for prisms with non-rectangular faces?
  3. How do you convert between different units (e.g., feet to inches) for surface area calculations?
  4. How do you determine which dimensions to use for surface area problems?
  5. What is the relationship between surface area and volume for rectangular prisms?

Tip: Always ensure you are using consistent units (inches, feet, yards) when calculating surface area.
