In Los Cabos, Mexico, there is a big sculpture of block letters that welcomes you. The image shows the letter C . What is its surface area?
10ft.
7ft.
4ft.
4ft.
15ft.
1ft.
To find the surface area of the letter C sculpture, we need to calculate the area of each individual block letter and then add them up.
The letter C consists of two blocks - one with a height of 10ft and a width of 7ft, and the other with a height of 4ft and a width of 15ft.
The area of the first block is 10ft x 7ft = 70 square feet
The area of the second block is 4ft x 15ft = 60 square feet
Therefore, the total surface area of the letter C sculpture is 70 square feet + 60 square feet = 130 square feet.
