What is surface area?

The area considered on the surface of the defined geometry is called the surface area.

Bradley made a house for his dog, Bowser, out of wood with a cube base and a triangular prism top. The dimensions of the dog house are a = 2 feet, b = 1 foot, and c = 1.4 feet.

Surface area of cube=4a²

S.A cube = 4 x 2²

S.A cube =16  ft²

Surface area of triangular prism=2[ac]+2[ab/2]

S.A prism = 2[2 x 1.4]+[ 2x 1]

S.A prism =7.6 ft²

Total paint required = S.A cube + S.A prism

                                 =16 ft²+7.6 ft²

                                 =23.6 ft²

Thus, the square feet of paint required is 23.6 ft². The correct option is C.
