Using the net of the prism, what is its surface area?
To find the surface area of the prism, we need to find the area of each face and then add them up.
The net of the prism is made up of 5 faces:
- 2 faces with dimensions 7mm x 8mm = 56mm^2 each
- 2 faces with dimensions 10mm x 8mm = 80mm^2 each
- 1 face with dimensions 7mm x 10mm = 70mm^2
Total surface area = 2(56mm^2) + 2(80mm^2) + 70mm^2
Total surface area = 112mm^2 + 160mm^2 + 70mm^2
Total surface area = 342mm^2
Therefore, the surface area of the prism is 342mm^2.
