Area of the rectangle for 1 base = ½ × 8 × 7.5 = 30 sq. meter.
Area of the rectangle for 2 bases = 30 × 2 = 60 sq. meter.
Second, find the area of the rectangle for 1 side = b × h
Breath = b = 5 cm.
Height = h = 8.5 cm.
= 5 × 8.5 = 42.5 sq. meter.
For second side = 2 × 42.5 = 85 sq.meter.
For bottom = b × h = 8 × 8.5 = 68 sq.meter.

Answer:
Formula for the surface area of a triangle = SA = ph + 2B
P = 15 + 14 + 13 = 42
H = 1 ft = 12 inches
B = ½ bh
B = ½ x 42 x 12 = 252 sq. inches.
SA = ph + 2B
SA = 42 x 12 + 2(252)
SA for triangle = 1008 sq. inches.
Surface area of the rectangle
SA = 2(h + b) = 2(12 + 14) = 52 sq. inches.
Surface area of the triangular prism = surface area of a triangle + surface area of the rectangle
= 1008 + 52 = 1060 square inches.
Lateral surface area of the triangular prism = (a + b + c)h.
a = 15 inches.

h = 3 m
Lateral Surface Area of the prism = Perimeter × height
Perimeter = 6 + 8 + 10 = 24 m
LSA = 3 × 24
LSA = 72 sq. meters
Total surface area of the prism = 2B + PH
B = area of base
B = (6m × 8m)/2 = 48/2 = 24 m²
SA = 2(24m²) + 72m²
SA = 48 m² + 72 m²

Answer:
The tent is in the shape of triangular prism
First find the area of the triangle for 1 base = ½ x bh
Breath = b = 10ft = 120 inches
Height = h = 63 inches
Area of the rectangle for 1 base = ½ × 120 × 63 = 3780 sq. inches.
Area of the rectangle for 2 bases = 3780 × 2 = 7560 sq. inches
Second find the area of the rectangle for 1 side = b × h
Breath = b = 87 inches
Height = h = 4 yard = 144 inches
= 87 × 144 = 12528 sq. inches.
For second side = 2 × 12528 = 25056 sq. inches.
For bottom = b × h = 120 × 63 = 7560 sq.inches.
The total surface area = 3780 + 25056 + 7560 = 36396 sq. inches
36396 sq. inches = 252.75 sq. feet.
The total surface area of the tent = 252.75 sq. feet.

Question 17.
A glass prism on a chandelier is 75 millimeters long. The base of the prism is an equilateral triangle with side lengths of 9 millimeters and a height of about 7.8 millimeters. What is the approximate surface area of the prism?
Answer:
Given,
A glass prism on a chandelier is 75 millimeters long.
The base of the prism is an equilateral triangle with side lengths of 9 millimeters and a height of about 7.8 millimeters
Area of the equilateral triangle:
1/2 × 7.8 × 9
There are two triangles – one on each end. So we multiply our previous expression by 2.
1/2 × 7.8 × 9 × 2
= 7.8 × 9
Each rectangle is 75 millimeters long and 9 millimeters wide: 75×9 sq. mm
We have 3 rectangles each the same size so we multiply 75×9 by 3.
75×9×3 = 2025
2025 + 70.2 = 2095.2 sq. mm

Problem Solving The base of a triangular prism is a right triangle whose legs are 7 cm and 24 cm. The height of the prism is 30 cm. What is the lateral area of the prism? Explain how you found your answer.
Answer:
Given,
The base of a triangular prism is a right triangle whose legs are 7 cm and 24 cm.
The height of the prism is 30 cm.
The formula of a lateral area of a triangular prism is 1/2 × PH
The perimeter of a triangle is the total of all sides.
base² = 7² + 24²
base² = 625
b = 25 cm
Therefore base = 25 cm
Perimeter = 7 + 24 + 25 = 56 cm
LSA = 1/2 × 56 × 30 = 840 cm²
Therefore the lateral area of the prism is 840 cm²

Question 20.
Communicate Mathematical Ideas Explain how to find the surface area of the composite figure. Then find its surface area.
Texas Go Math Grade 8 Lesson 10.1 Answer Key 15
Answer:
Formula for the surface area for triangle = SA = ph + 2B
P = 1.8 + 1.8 + 3 = 6.6
H = 3 inches
B = ½ bh
B = ½ x 1 x 3 = 1.5
SA = ph + 2B
SA = 6.6 x 3 + 2(1.5)
SA for triangle = 22.8 sq. inches.
For square
P = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12
H = 4
B = 3 x 4 = 12
Square = SA = 12(4) + 2(12)
SA = 48 + 24
SA = 72 sq. inches.
Surface area of composite figure = surface area of a triangle + surface area of square
= 22.8 + 72 = 94.8 square inches.
