Could someone help me out? Use formulas to find the lateral area and surface area of the given prism. Round your answer to the nearest whole number. A. 645 m²; 779 m² B. 671 m²; 725 m² C. 645 m²; 725 m² D. 671 m²; 698 m²
@starlord6200 @THEHELPER123 Can you guys help?
i might be able to help im on this unit now in k12 :)
I'm in Connections. I want to know how to do it. Thank you .
okay well do you know how to do the surface area that is pretty easy :)
Yea \[S.A = L.A + 2B\]
if we find the surface area then we know which answer is right :)
so plug in your numbers
\[L.A = 6 \times 70\]
L.A = 420
S.A = 420 + 2B
okay good now the surface area is A≈725.32
Okay. I think I got it now. I guess I just needed a bit of a jumpstart. Thanks!
so what is your answer? :)
Wait, how'd you get the surface area being 725???
wait no 725 is right what do you mean? :/ im confused
Me too. I got the lateral area wrong as well. 420 is none of the choices...
Ugh. I keep getting 420.
okay so can you use a website i can offer? i did not use it maybe im wrong but you can check by using this :) https://www.google.com/search?q=surface+area+of+a+triangular+prism+calculator&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
your answer is B by the way lol >U<
Okay, thanks so much!
np have any more :)
Nope, thanks!
