Respuesta :

the surface area of the prism is [tex]234mm^2[/tex] .

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have , A right rectangular prism has a length of 15 millimeters, width of 3 millimeters, and height of 4 millimeters.  We need to find  What is the surface area of the prism . Let's find out:

We know that surface area of the prism = [tex]2(lb+bw+wl)[/tex] . According to question we have following parameters as :

[tex]length = 15 mm\\width=3mm\\height=4mm[/tex]

Putting these values to find area of prism we get:

⇒ [tex]Area = 2(lw+wh+hl)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]Area = 2(15(3)+3(4)+4(15))[/tex]

⇒ [tex]Area = 2(45+12+60)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]Area = 2(117)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]Area = 234mm^2[/tex]

Therefore , the surface area of the prism is [tex]234mm^2[/tex] .
