Find The Lateral Surface Area Of The Prism Geometry Hw class=

Sagot :

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

The prism shown is a pentagonal prism

And we need to find the lateral surface area ( pretty much area of everything except for the bases.)

We can calculate the lateral surface area by using this formula

[tex]la=5ah[/tex]

where a (on the right hand side) equals the base edge length and h = height

(btw the 5 represents the number of sides)

so the base edge length of the shown figure is 5 and the height is 10

having found this information we plug it into the formula

[tex]la=5*5*10\\10*5=50\\50*5=250[/tex]

so we can conclude that the lateral surface area of the shown pentagonal prism is 250 cm²
