ANSWER:
The surface area of the rectangular prism is 250 [tex]\mathrm{cm}^{2}[/tex]
SOLUTION:
Given, Rectangular prism has a length of 5 cm a width of 5 cm and a height of 10 cm.
Let length of the rectangular prism be l = 5 cm
Width of the rectangular prism be w = 5 cm
Height of the rectangular prism be h = 10 cm
We need to find the surface area of the rectangular prism.
A rectangular prism is nothing but a cuboid shape.
So, surface area of a rectaangular prism= 2(lw + wh + hl)
= 2(5 [tex]\times[/tex] 5 + 5 [tex]\times[/tex] 10 + 10 [tex]\times[/tex] 5)
= 2(25 + 50 + 50)
= 2 [tex]\times[/tex] 125
=250 [tex]\mathrm{cm}^{2}[/tex]
Hence, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 250 [tex]\mathrm{cm}^{2}[/tex]
