What is the surface area of a right rectangular prism where each edge length measures 15.10 cm? the anwer is 1.368.06
To calculate the surface area of a right rectangular prism, you need to find the area of each face and then add them together.
A right rectangular prism has 6 faces: 3 pairs of parallel rectangular faces.
Each rectangular face has a length and width that is equal to the corresponding edge length of the prism.
The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length by the width.
Given that each edge length measures 15.10 cm, the length and width of each rectangular face is also 15.10 cm.
The area of each rectangular face is 15.10 cm * 15.10 cm = 228.01 cm².
Since there are 6 faces, the total surface area is 6 * 228.01 cm² = 1368.06 cm².
Therefore, the correct answer is 1368.06 cm², not 1.368.06 cm².
