You can put this solution on YOUR website! The surface area S of a right prism is given by S=2B+Ph, where B is the area of the base, P is the perimeter of the base, and h is the height of the prism.
Solve for h.
---------------
"Solve for" means get h on one side of the = by itself.
S=2B+Ph
Ph = S - 2B
h = (S- 2B)/P
