Calculate the surface area of a right rectangular prism with dimensions w = 12 in., I = 18 in., and h = 8 in... How many
square inches is the surface area?
The formula to calculate the surface area of a right rectangular prism is:
Surface Area = 2(w × I + w × h + I × h)
Plugging in the given values:
w = 12 in
I = 18 in
h = 8 in
Surface Area = 2(12 × 18 + 12 × 8 + 18 × 8)
Surface Area = 2(216 + 96 + 144)
Surface Area = 2(456)
Surface Area = 912 square inches
The surface area of the right rectangular prism is 912 square inches.
