Algebra.Com's Answer #372018 by KMST(5328)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The area of a parallelogram is calculated by multiplying base length times height. \n" ); document.write( "The area of a parallelogram with a base length of 3 feet and a height of 7 feet is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The surface area of a prism is calculated by adding the base surface area times two (for the 2, bottom and top, bases), plus the surface area of the sides. \n" ); document.write( "The surface area of the sides can be calculated by multiplying the perimeter of the base times the height of the prism. That is the area of a rectangle that would wrap all around the sides of the prism. \n" ); document.write( "The perimeter, P, of a rectangle is the sum of the length of all the sides. You could add length, l, and width, w, different ways: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The perimeter of a rectangular base that is 4 x 8 is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The lateral surface area (surface area of the sides) of a rectangular prism with a base that is 4 x 8 and a height that is 5 is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The surface area of a base that is 4 x 8 is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The total surface area of a rectangular prism with a base that is 4 x 8 and a height that is 5 is \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
