Answer: The surface area (or SA) of the prism is 174 inches squared.
Step-by-step explanation: All you must do to find the surface area of a rectangular prism is follow the formula SA = 2(wl+hl+hw)
SA = 2 ( 5x9 + 3x9 + 3x5 )
SA = 2( 45 + 27 + 15 )
SA = 2(87) *a number next to another number in parenthesis means to multiply*
SA = 2 x 87
SA = 174 in. sq.
Answer:
The surface area of rectangular prism =Surface area
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula:
The surface area of a rectangular prism with length 'l', breadth 'b' and height 'h' is given by,
Surface area = 2(lb + bh + lh)
Find the surface area of rectangular prism
l = 9 inches, b= 5 inches and h= 3
Surface area = 2(lb + bh + lh)
Surface area = 2(9*5 + 5*3 + 9*3)
Surface area = 2(45 + 15 + 27) = 2 *87 = 174 square inches
Therefore the surface area of rectangular prism =Surface area
