What is the surface area of the prism? a. 164 yd2 b. 204 yd2 c. 240 yd2 d. 300 yd2

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "D. 300 yd2."

We have to get the areas of 5 polygons and add them together to get the surface area.

Area 1 = l * w = 5*8 = 40
Area 2 = l * w = 12 * 8 = 96
Area 3 = l * w = 13 * 8 = 104
Area 4 = bh/2 = 5*12/2 =30
Area 5 = bh/2 = 5*12/2 = 30

Area = Area 1 + Area 2 + Area 3 + Area 4 + Area 5
Area = 40 + 96 + 104 + 30 + 30
Area = 300 yard^2
