Using what we know about how to find the area of a polygon, how do you think you would find the surface area of a prism?

• Measure the sides of each face on the prism then add them all

• Find the volume of the prism then multiply it times the number of faces

• Find the area of each face then multiply it by the number of faces on the prism

• Find the area of each face then add them all

The individual units in the Rubiks cube are 1 inch on each side. Based on this information take a guess at what the surface area of the cube would be.

Answer: __ units²

Answer explanation

Each unit in the Rubiks cube is 1 in. There are 3 for the base and 3 for the height. A=BH so A=9. Since the cube as 6 sides we can add 9+9+9+9+9+9 or we multiply 9x6 and find our surface area to be 54 in²

The rectangular prism's top and bottom bases have an area of ​ (a)   cm². It's sides are ​ (b)   cm². It's front and back are ​ (c)   cm². The rectangular prism has a surface area of ​​ (d)   cm².

• 36
• 12
• 27
• 150

Answer explanation

The length of the bottom and top rectangles are 9 in² and their widths are 3 in². With a=lw the area of the top and bottom rectangles = 27 in². The front and back rectangles have a length of 9 in² and a height of 4 in². Their area's are 36 in². The two rectangles on the side have a width of 3 in² and a height of 4 in², so their areas are 12 in². After adding all 6 sides together we find out the rectangular prism's surface area = 150 in²
