The figure above shows that the area can be calculated in at least two different ways. What does this tell you about choice A and choice C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C is right and A is wrong

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Right. C is true and A is false. Since you are looking for the only false statement, it must be A.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

No matter which method you use, there is only one correct answer to the surface area, so B is true.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Finally, for D, it is also true because surface area is measured in square units. The only false one is A.
