A.312
B.402
C.372
D.492
(Square cm)​

Sagot :

Answer:

C.372

Step-by-step explanation:

A prism is a three dimensional shape with two identical shapes facing each other known as bases.

A triangular prism has two triangular bases and three rectangle.

From the net attached:

Area of triangle 1 = area of triangle 2 = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 10 cm * 12  cm = 60 cm²

Area of rectangle 1 = Area of rectangle 2 = length * width = 13 cm * 7 cm = 91 cm²

Area of rectangle 3 = base * height = 10 cm * 7 cm = 70 cm²

Total surface area = Area of triangle 1 + Area of triangle 2 + Area of rectangle 1 + Area of rectangle 2 + Area of rectangle 3

Total surface area = 60 + 60 + 91 + 91 + 70 = 372 cm²
