Answer:
The surface area of Rectangular prism is [tex]358 \ cm^2[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of the rectangular prism = 7 cm
Width of the rectangular prism = 5 cm
Height of the rectangular prism = 12 cm
we need to find the surface area of rectangular prism.
Solution:
the surface area of rectangular prism is equal to 2 times sum of length times width and width times height and length times height.
framing in equation form we get;
the surface area of rectangular prism = [tex]2(l\times w+w\times h+h\times l)[/tex]
the surface area of rectangular prism = [tex]2(7\times5+5\times12+12\times7) = 2(35+60+84) = 2\times179 = 358\ cm^2[/tex]
Hence The surface area of Rectangular prism is [tex]358 \ cm^2[/tex].
