Question

A rectangular solid has sides of 4 can, 6 cm, and 8 cm what is the surface area

Answer 1

Answer:
`208cm^2`

Explanation:

Given the sides of the rectangular solid, which you can identify as "x", "y" as "z":

`x=8cm\\y=6cm\\z=4cm`

You can calculate the surface area (SA) of the rectangular solid with the following formula:

`SA=2(yz+xy+xz)`

Then you need to substitute the values of the "x", "y" and "z" into the formula.

Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular solid is:

`SA=2(yz+xy+xz)\\\\SA=2[(6cm)(4cm)+(8cm)(6cm)+(8cm)(4cm)]\\\\SA=2[24cm^2+48cm^2+32cm^2]\\\\SA=208cm^2`
