Molly is painting a model house and needs to know how much paint she will need. she knows the surface area of the prism is 216 square inches and the surface area of the pyramid is 84 square inches. what is the area molly needs to paint?

Part 1) The surface that is shared by the two solids is the top of the cube that is the same that the square base of the pyramid.

Part 2) The dimensions of this surface are 6 in x 6 in.

Part 3) Molly needs to paint 228 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Which surface is shared by the two solids?

we know that The surface that is shared by the two solids is the top of the cube that is the same that the square base of the pyramid

Part 2)  What are the dimensions of this surface?

The surface is a square with side length 6 inches so The dimensions of this surface are 6 in x 6 in

Part 3) what is the area molly needs to paint?

we know that The area that Molly needs to paint is equal to the surface area of the cube plus the surface area of the pyramid minus two times the area of the surface that is shared by the two solids so therefore, Molly needs to paint 228 square inches

the first one, all those points on the line just make a strait line.
