lateral surface area = (perimeter of base)*(height of prism)

anonymous · Answer

plz help

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

total surface area = 2*(area of 1 base) + (lateral surface area)

anonymous · Answer

okay...

anonymous · Answer

30x7

anonymous · Answer

30x7=210

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

210 is your lateral surface area

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

incorrect

anonymous · Answer

really, that was easier than i thought

anonymous · Answer

okay, then what is i am confused

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

total surface area = 2*(area of 1 base) + (lateral surface area)

OOOOOHHHH

anonymous · Answer

we are not multiplieing, we are adding

anonymous · Answer
