I need help. Will fan and metal for the first one to give me the CORRECT answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is the surface area for the given figure? A. 2520 cm^2 B. 2792 cm^2 C. 4080 cm^2 D. 2280 cm^2

@leahhhmorgannn

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Anyone?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

You have to calculate the surface area of 5 planes.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I never learned that!

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

The 2 triangles on the end. They are each 24 by 10 so together their surface area is 240.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And that is just for the two triangles, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldnt I have to do something with the rectangles?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

The rectangle at the back is 34 by 10 so its suraface area is ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

340 but there is two of them. So would I have to add 340 + 340 to get the surface area of those?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the rectangles?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

No. The only planes that are equal are the 2 triangles which we already calculated. The bottom rectangle is 24 by 34 with an area of 816

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so now we have to do something with the calculations with the triangles and with the calculations of the rectangle.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

The top rectangle (the slanted rectangle) is 34 by 26 = 884 NOW we have all the areas calculated.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so now do we add them all together?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to get the surface area?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Yes, add the triangle area to the 3 rectangle area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then thats the answer?

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

Yes, it should be. So add 240 + 340 + 816 + 884

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

You do have the answer don't you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2280 is the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, I was trying to make my lunch.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

That is the answer - and that's 'd' right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I thin so. Thanks so much for your help.

OpenStudy (wolf1728):

u r welcome :-)
