Find the surface area of the rectangular prism. 5ft tall 5 feet long 2 feet wide

46.25 feet squared

Step-by-step explanation:

base area = 5x2 = 10

you need to find how tall the faces of the prism are now. You can do this using the pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

5^2+2.5^2=c^2 and 5^2+1^2=c^2

(since it is a rectangular pyramid)

c= 5.60 and c= 5.01

now be can find the surface area of the 4 triangles

SA= 5.60x2 and SA= 5.01x5

SA=11.2 and SA= 25.05

add all the components (11.2, 25.05, 10) together to get the final surface area: 46.25

5x+2x=49

7x=49

x=7. 35 apples

207/8 is the right
