an someone please help me with this math homework please am in 7th grade https://ibb.co/nBwvLJT and https://ibb.co/5n9MYDr
we want the lateral surface area and the total surface area so once more, lateral surface area is just the area without the bases so without the triangles
ok
so the green rectangles the width is 1 cm but the lengths are 2.5, 3 and 2.5 so the big green rectangle has a width of 1 and a length of (2.5+2.5 + 3) = 8 so what is the area of a rectangle with width 1 and length of 8
8
Yup! And if you're wondering how I got that length of 8, it's because I made the three rectangles into one big rectangle
oh k
So 8 is our lateral surface area now to find the total surface area, we need to also find the area of the triangles the base is 3 and the height is 2 area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height what is the area?
3
Good! So that's the area of one triangle but we have TWO triangles and the area of all three rectangles is 8 total surface area = 3 + 3 + 8 total surface area = ??
14
and that's your total surface area :)
thank you teacher you helped me with my homework a lot your the best 👍🏼
Of course, Anthony! It was my pleasure :)
:)
now i need to start coloring them
You got this! Let me know if you want me to check over it
