Apply the formula to find the surface area of a right rectangular prism with length 8 inches, width 3 inches, and height 10 inches.
A. 268 in.2
B. 134 in.2
C. 115,200 in.2
D. 402 in.3
First, we need to find the individual areas of each face of the rectangular prism.
The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is:
2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Plugging in the given dimensions:
2(8*3) + 2(8*10) + 2(3*10)
= 48 + 160 + 60
= 268 in^2
Therefore, the surface area of the right rectangular prism is 268 in^2.
A. 268 in^2
