Explanation:

Finding surface area

To find the surface area of a prism, use the formula SA=2B+ph, where SA stands for surface area, B stands for area of the base of the prism, p stands for the perimeter of the base, and h stands for the height of the prism. Since this is a triangular prism, substitute the area formula of a triangle for B.
