To find the volume of a rectangular prism, you use the formula V = l x w x h, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Given that the dimensions of the rectangular prism are 3.5in, 5in, and 1in, we can plug these values into the formula:
V = 3.5in x 5in x 1in
V = 17.5in³
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 17.5 cubic inches.
To find the surface area of a rectangular prism, you use the formula SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Given the dimensions of the rectangular prism are 3.5in, 5in, and 1in, we can plug these values into the formula:
SA = 2(3.5in x 5in) + 2(3.5in x 1in) + 2(5in x 1in)
SA = 2(17.5in²) + 2(3.5in²) + 2(5in²)
SA = 35in² + 7in² + 10in²
SA = 52in²
Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 52 square inches.
