Alicia is painting sales for model ship each sale is a triangle with the same perimeter which cell has the greatest area. One is 6 ft by 6 ft by 5.2 ft x 6 ft B is 60x3 ft by 4 ft by 8 ft and c is 8 ft by 2.7 ft x 3 ft x 7 ft So which sale is a triangle with the same perimeter and which cell has the greatest area
Based on the dimensions given, none of the options A, B, or C are triangles. Instead, they are rectangular prisms.
To calculate the area of each rectangular prism, you can use the formula:
Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
For option A:
Area = 2(6*6) + 2(6*5.2) + 2(6*5.2) = 72 + 62.4 + 62.4 = 196.8 sq ft
For option B:
Area = 2(60*3) + 2(60*4) + 2(3*4) = 360 + 480 + 24 = 864 sq ft
For option C:
Area = 2(8*2.7) + 2(8*3) + 2(2.7*3) = 43.2 + 48 + 16.2 = 107.4 sq ft
Therefore, option B has the greatest area of 864 sq ft.
