Find the lateral area and surface area of the given prism.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (dan815):

area = height * width

OpenStudy (dan815):

surface area = adding the area of all the sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which is the height? 2?

OpenStudy (dan815):

anything u want it to be it depends on how you see it basically area = multiplying the 2 sides together

OpenStudy (anonymous):

100 m2; 328 m2 304 m2; 214 m2 100 m2; 214 m2 304 m2; 328 m2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I only got the surface area. 328m^2.

OpenStudy (dan815):

lateral area is the area of side that is touching the ground

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2(2)(6) + 2(6)(19) + 2(2)(19) 2(2)(6) + 2(6)(19)?

OpenStudy (dan815):

i think i may not be right, look up the definition of lateral area

OpenStudy (dan815):

do this calculation for me

OpenStudy (dan815):

okay nvm it works lateral area is apperantly the perimeter of the bottom times height

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But what is the height??

OpenStudy (dan815):

2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm sorry but that isn't it. That gives me 54 which is none of the answers.

OpenStudy (dan815):

ur doing it wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

27 * 2?

OpenStudy (dan815):

no

OpenStudy (dan815):

what is the perimeter of the bottom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 + 19 + 6 = 27

OpenStudy (dan815):

noo
