Why is it important to find the surface area of an object?

Back

Finding the surface area is important for determining how much material is needed to cover the object, such as paint or wrapping paper.

What is the surface area of a rectangular prism with dimensions 10 cm, 5 cm, and 8 cm?

Back

Surface Area = 2(10*5 + 10*8 + 5*8) = 2(50 + 80 + 40) = 2(170) = 340 cm².

What is the surface area of a rectangular prism with a length of 12 m, width of 4 m, and height of 3 m?

Back

Surface Area = 2(12*4 + 12*3 + 4*3) = 2(48 + 36 + 12) = 2(96) = 192 m².

What is the surface area of a rectangular prism with dimensions 5 cm, 7 cm, and 10 cm?

Back

Surface Area = 2(5*7 + 5*10 + 7*10) = 2(35 + 50 + 70) = 2(155) = 310 cm².
