Use the formula for the surface area of a right rectangular prism to find the surface area of a shape with the following measurements: length = 4.5 cm, width = 3.5 cm, and height = 2.5 cm.(1 point)%0D%0AResponses%0D%0A%0D%0A35.75 cm2%0D%0A35.75 cm squared%0D%0A%0D%0A63 cm2%0D%0A63 cm squared%0D%0A%0D%0A71.5 cm2%0D%0A71.5 cm squared%0D%0A%0D%0A10.5 cm2
To find the surface area of a right rectangular prism, you need to calculate the sum of the areas of all of its faces.
The formula for the surface area of a right rectangular prism is:
Surface Area = 2 * (length * width + length * height + width * height)
Using the given measurements:
Length = 4.5 cm
Width = 3.5 cm
Height = 2.5 cm
Surface Area = 2 * (4.5 * 3.5 + 4.5 * 2.5 + 3.5 * 2.5)
Surface Area = 2 * (15.75 + 11.25 + 8.75)
Surface Area = 2 * 35.75
Surface Area = 71.5 cm2
Therefore, the surface area of the shape with the given measurements is 71.5 cm2.
