square feet of plywood.

Sagot :

The amount of plywood that he needs to buy will be 21 square feet.

What is the surface area of the triangular prism?

Let the prism with a length of L of the rectangular surface.

And the dimension of the triangle is A, B, and C. Then we have

SA = 2(area of triangle) + 3(area of rectangle surface)

A triangular prism.

The rectangular sides are 3 feet by 2 feet, 3 feet by 2.5 feet, and 3 feet by 1.5 feet.

The 2 triangular sides have a base of 2 feet and a height of 1.5 feet.

Then the area of the triangle will be

⇒ 1/2 x 2 x 1.5

⇒ 1.5 square feet

The area of the rectangles will be

⇒ 3 x 2 + 3 x 2.5 + 3 x 1.5

⇒ 18 square feet

Then the surface area of the triangular prism will be

Surface area = 2 x 1.5 + 18

Surface arae = 3 + 18

Surface area = 21 square feet
