14 x 9 x 6?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

the perimeter of the base is: 14+9+14+9=...

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

46

All you would do is find the areas of the rectangles minus the areas of the bases. So what you are going to do is find the areas of the rectangles on the sides. That is the lateral area.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

ok!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

so the requested lateral area is: 46*6=...

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

276

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

that's right!

OpenStudy (gabbyalicorn):

:D yay! B Thank you!

OpenStudy (michele_laino):
