The net of a triangular prism is shown. What is the surface area of the triangular prism?
Numbers:7,25,24,100
Answer in: square units
Answer options:
5,668 square units
5,768 square units
5,936 square units
5,684 square units
5,768 square units
To find the surface area of the triangular prism, we need to calculate the sum of the areas of all its faces.
Area of the two triangular bases:
1/2 * base * height
= 1/2 * 7 * 5
= 17.5 square units for each base
Area of the three rectangular faces:
24 * 5 = 120 square units
25 * 5 = 125 square units
100 * 7 = 700 square units
Total surface area:
2(17.5) + 120 + 125 + 700
= 35 + 120 + 125 + 700
= 5,768 square units
Therefore, the surface area of the triangular prism is 5,768 square units.
