To find the surface area of a rectangular prism, you need to add up the areas of all six faces.
Let's assume the dimensions of the rectangular prism are:
Length = L
Width = W
Height = H
The formula to calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism is:
Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Given options for the surface area are:
(a) 60 in^2
(b) 84 in^2
(c) 26 in^2
(d) 52 in^2
We need to find the values of L, W, and H such that the surface area formula gives us the desired value. Let's try each option one by one:
(a) If we assume Surface Area = 60 in^2, we get the following equation:
2lw + 2lh + 2wh = 60
This equation cannot be solved since there are three variables (L, W, H) and only one equation.
(b) If we assume Surface Area = 84 in^2, we get the following equation:
2lw + 2lh + 2wh = 84
Again, this equation cannot be solved since there are three variables (L, W, H) and only one equation.
(c) If we assume Surface Area = 26 in^2, we get the following equation:
2lw + 2lh + 2wh = 26
Once again, this equation cannot be solved since there are three variables (L, W, H) and only one equation.
(d) If we assume Surface Area = 52 in^2, we get the following equation:
2lw + 2lh + 2wh = 52
This equation can be solved for specific values of L, W, and H.
Unfortunately, without knowing the relative dimensions of the rectangular prism, we cannot determine which option is correct.
To find the surface area of a rectangular prism, you need to add up the areas of all six faces.
The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is:
Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height of the rectangular prism.
Since you haven't provided the dimensions of the rectangular prism, it's not possible to calculate the surface area. Please provide the length, width, and height of the rectangular prism to find the accurate surface area.
