The jewelry store has a small box in which to wrap the items that it sells the diagram below shows one of the boxes the diagram is not to scale what are the lateral area and surface area of the box to the nearest whole number use the large 15 cm by 8 cm rectangle on the top and bottom is the base.
2.26cm,15cm,8cm
Lateral area = (Height) x (Perimeter of base)
Lateral area = 2.26cm x (15cm + 15cm + 8cm + 8cm)
Lateral area = 2.26cm x 46cm
Lateral area ≈ 104 cm²
Surface area = (Area of base) + (Lateral area x 2)
Surface area = (15cm x 8cm) + (104 cm² x 2)
Surface area = 120cm² + 208cm²
Surface area ≈ 328 cm²
Therefore, the lateral area is approximately 104 cm² and the surface area is approximately 328 cm².
