What is the formula for calculating the surface area of a rectangular prism?

Back

The surface area (SA) of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula: SA = 2(lw + lh + wh), where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.

How do you find the surface area of a rectangular prism with dimensions 2 cm, 3 cm, and 4 cm?

Back

Using the formula SA = 2(lw + lh + wh), substitute the values: SA = 2(2*3 + 2*4 + 3*4) = 2(6 + 8 + 12) = 2(26) = 52 cm².

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

Back

Using the formula SA = 2(lw + lh + wh), SA = 2(10*10 + 10*8 + 10*8) = 2(100 + 80 + 80) = 2(260) = 520 cm².
