Answer:
Volume of object = 42 cubic cm
Surface area of object = 96 square cm
Explanations:
The given figure is a triangular prism.The formula for calculating its volume is expressed as:
[tex]volume\text{ }of\text{ prism}=BH[/tex]
where:
B is the base area
H is the height of prism
[tex]\begin{gathered} volume\text{ of }prism=(\frac{1}{2}\times4\times3)\times7 \\ volume\text{ of }prism=6\times7 \\ volume\text{ of }prism=42cm^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Determine the surface area of the prism
The surface area if the sum of all the faces of the prism.The faces consists of 3 rectangles and 2 triangles. The surface area is calculated as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} Surface\text{ area}=2(0.5\times3\times4)+(7\times4)+(3\times7)+(5\times7) \\ Surface\text{ area}=12cm^2+28cm^2+21cm^2+35cm^2 \\ Surface\text{ area}=96cm^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Hence the surface area of the object shown is 96 square cm
