Answer 2

you need to find exposed surface area.

Answer 3

what do u mean

Answer 4

TA of longer piece = 2(lw) + 2(hw) + 2(lh)
2*1*1 +2*6*1 + 2*1*6
= 2 + 12 + 12 = 26

TA of shorter piece = 2(lw) + 2(hw) + 2(lh)
= 2*1*1 + 2*3*1 + 2*1*3
= 14

Add the two surface areas together.
26 + 14 = 40
then u need to subtract the Subtract the area where the two pieces of wood are attached.
40 - (2*1*1) =

Answer 5

what do u do for 40 - (2*1*1) =
