The figure below is a net for a triangular prism.On the tactile printout of the following graphs, a is 13 meters, b is 15 meters, c is 9 meters, and d is 15, point, 8, 15.81 meters. whats the surface area..
To find the surface area of the triangular prism, we need to calculate the areas of the three rectangles and two triangles that make up the net.
The surface area consists of:
1. The area of the two triangular faces:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
= 1/2 * 13m * 9m
= 58.5 square meters (for one triangle, multiply by 2 for both)
2. The area of the three rectangular faces:
- Two faces with dimensions 13m x 15m
= 13m * 15m
= 195 square meters (for one rectangle, multiply by 2 for both)
- One face with dimensions 15m x 9m
= 15m * 9m
= 135 square meters
Adding up the areas of all the faces:
58.5 + 195 + 195 + 135 = 583.5 square meters
Therefore, the surface area of the triangular prism is 583.5 square meters.
