Part 1:
\n" ); document.write( "42*3 = 126mm is the length of the box
\n" ); document.write( "The sides are 42 x 42
\n" ); document.write( "-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
\n" ); document.write( "Part 2:
\n" ); document.write( "42*Pi is the circumference of the cylinder and 126 is the height (or length)
\n" ); document.write( "-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
\n" ); document.write( "Part 3 - Exterior surfaces only, if you need external and internal multiply times 2.
\n" ); document.write( "Box:
\n" ); document.write( "The box has 4 sides and 2 ends:
\n" ); document.write( "Sides (4 sides): 4(126*42) =
\n" ); document.write( "Ends (2 ends): 2(42*42) =
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply and add the products to get the total area of the rectangular prism
\n" ); document.write( "Cylinder:
\n" ); document.write( "(42*Pi)*126 outside surface of the cylinder (like I said, if you need internal and external just multiply times 2)
\n" ); document.write( "Ends (2 ends): 2 = 2 add this to the area of the cylinder above. Again, if you need the surface of both sides you need to multiply the result times 2.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
