The object above is symmetrical through Z. If Y = 11 inches, Z = 12 inches, and H = 7 inches, what is the area of the object?
A. 37 square inches
B. 6 square inches
C. 168 square inches
D. 84 square inches
To find the area of the object, we first need to find the dimensions of the base of the object. Since the object is symmetrical through Z, the base will also have a height of 7 inches (H) and a width of 12 inches (Z).
The area of the base can be calculated as A = height x width = 7 x 12 = 84 square inches.
Since the object is symmetrical through Z, there are two identical bases, so the total area of the object is 84 x 2 = 168 square inches.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
C. 168 square inches
