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)
The formula for the surface area of a right rectangular prism is:
Surface Area = 2(length × width + length × height + width × height)
Plugging in the given measurements:
Surface Area = 2(4.5 cm × 3.5 cm + 4.5 cm × 2.5 cm + 3.5 cm × 2.5 cm)
Surface Area = 2(15.75 cm² + 11.25 cm² + 8.75 cm²)
Surface Area = 2(35.75 cm²)
Surface Area = 71.5 cm²
The surface area of the given shape is 71.5 cm².
