A. 668 m2; 704 m2 B. 645 m2; 740 m2 C. 668 m2; 740 m2 D. 645 m2; 812 m2
Volume = ½ * Lb * Wb * H
V=1/2*32*184*12.04
@flixoe ????
I think I am barking up the wrong tree again???
Are we looking for surface area or volume?
I have no instructions- just the diagram and choices =(
I think we are looking for both since there are 2 answers for each choice
Let's try surface area: (8x9)/2 for 2 end triangle gives us 72. 23x9 for the bottom rectangle gives us 207. 23x8 for the left rectangle gives us 184. 12.04x23 for top rectangle gives us 276.92. Added together: 739.92 which relates to answer choice B and C.
Now volume would be the area of one triangle (36) multiplied by the side (23) which equals 828. I would personally go with C because 668 shows up in both A and C and 740 shows up in B and C, so most likely C is the answer.
You were right. It is definitely C. You are amazing. When you break it down, it makes more sense. But for some reason, I can't get going at first.
