OpenStudy (quinton1011):

Are you sure? I believe it is

OpenStudy (flower2468):

the formula is A=2h(l+w)

OpenStudy (flower2468):

or A=2x10x9=180

OpenStudy (calebxjr):

ty

OpenStudy (flower2468):

so the answer is B

OpenStudy (calebxjr):

OpenStudy (flower2468):

OpenStudy (calebxjr):

OpenStudy (flower2468):

okay what do you think the answer is

OpenStudy (calebxjr):

160

OpenStudy (fortytherapper):

You found volume I believe

OpenStudy (flower2468):

no, the formula is 2ab + 2bc + 2 ac http://www.math.com/tables/geometry/rprism.gif

OpenStudy (flower2468):

so 2*4*5=40+2*5*8+2*4*8

OpenStudy (flower2468):

=....

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Please look up "lateral area." This is what you want to calculate. The prism has 6 sides, or 3 pair of congruent sides. How do you find the areas of the individual sides?

OpenStudy (flower2468):

Cale do you know the answer?

OpenStudy (calebxjr):

from the equation?

OpenStudy (calebxjr):

or just a guess

OpenStudy (flower2468):

yes so 2ab=40+2bc=80+2ac=64=

OpenStudy (flower2468):

so 40+80+64=...?

OpenStudy (mathmale):

flower: Your formula for the lateral area needs fixing. Please attend to that.

OpenStudy (calebxjr):

o i got that answer on this sight

OpenStudy (mathmale):

So, what do you need now?

OpenStudy (flower2468):

okay so do you still need me help
