Answer:

Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism is 170 in.²

Explanation:

Given:

Length of base of rectangular prism = 5 inches

Width of base of rectangular prism = 6 inches

Height of the Rectangular prism = 5 inches.

We have to find the Surface Area of the prism.

Surface Area of the Prism

= 2 ( length × width + width × height + height × length )

= 2 ( 5 × 6 + 6 × 5 + 5 × 5 )

= 2 ( 30 + 30 + 25 )

= 2 × 85

= 170 inches²

Therefore, Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism is 170 in.²
