Find the lateral area for the prism https://media.aop.com/curric/ow-sets/curriculum2015/g_geo_2015/8/groupi68.gif

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so first you need calculi the 3rd side of this triangle - yes ? than i see it right this is a right triangle - yes ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so than just use Pythagora's theorem - ok ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

do you know it ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so the unknowed side let being x - using Pythagora - x^2 = 6^2 +4^2 - can you continue it please ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

are you here ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 times the square root of 13 is x

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so x=2sqrt13 - yes this is right - so very nice but you need calculi just lateral area - yes - so how can you get it ,do you know ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Perimeter times the height = L.A.

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

i think yes - so can you calculi it ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so how many will be the perimeter ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

come please this is easy

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

P= 4+6+2sqrt13 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[12 \times \sqrt{13}\]

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

no - you not can assuming 10+2sqrt13 - ok ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so do you have got it ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its \[80+16\sqrt{16}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I meant \[80+16\sqrt{13}\]

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

so 8*4=32 and 6*8=48 assuming 32+48=80 and 3rd side 8*2sqrt13 = 16sqrt13 lateral area = 80+16sqrt13 yes --- right sure
