The base of a right prism is a rectangle with sides 8 cm and 5 cm. The height of the prism is 12 cm. What is the total surface area?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Base = Rectangle

Length = 8 cm, Width = 5 cm

Height = 12 cm

Total Surface Area = 2(lb + bh + hl)

= 2[(8 × 5) + (5 × 12) + (8 × 12)]

= 2(40 + 60 + 96)

= 2 × 196

= 392 cm²
