AZ:

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

Tonycoolkid21:

ok

AZ:

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

Tonycoolkid21:

8

AZ:

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

AZ:

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?

Tonycoolkid21:

3

AZ:

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 = ??

Tonycoolkid21:

14

AZ:

and that's your total surface area :)

Tonycoolkid21:

thank you teacher you helped me with my homework a lot your the best 👍🏼

AZ:

Of course, Anthony! It was my pleasure :)

Tonycoolkid21:

:)

Tonycoolkid21:
