Use the formula to determine the surface area of a right rectangular prism where each edge length measures 12.75 cm.(1 point) Responses 76.5 cm2 76.5 cm squared 975.38 cm2 975.38 cm squared 459 cm2 459 cm squared 5,852.25 cm2
The formula to determine the surface area of a right rectangular prism is:
Surface area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Given that each edge length measures 12.75 cm, we can substitute this value into the formula:
Surface area = 2(12.75)(12.75) + 2(12.75)(12.75) + 2(12.75)(12.75)
Surface area = 2(162.5625) + 2(162.5625) + 2(162.5625)
Surface area = 325.125 + 325.125 + 325.125
Surface area = 975.375
Therefore, the surface area of the right rectangular prism is 975.375 cm2. Rounded to the nearest hundredths, the surface area is 975.38 cm2.
