What is the surface area of this prism? a. 120 cm2 b. 122 cm2 c. 240 cm2 d. 184 cm2

Here is how to get the Surface Area of a triangular prism.
First you must find their areas first then multiply it by 2 (because it has 2 faces) except for the base, since it has a triangular base.
A = bxh/2                           A = 15 m x 30 m         A = 30 m x 18 m
   = (18 m x 12 m )/2             =  450 m^2                  = 540 m^2 
   = 216 m ^2/2
   = 108 m^2
Add all the faces:
SA = 2 (108 m^2) + 2 (540 m^2 ) +  450 m^2     
     = 216 m^2 +1080 m^2 + 450 m^2  
     = 1,746 m^2
The answer is not found in your choices. The attached picture is also showing m (meter) as the unit used not cmso I guess you got the wrong choices.

Best answer that i found on yahoo ok   set :   x= length of 2nd piece in cm  x- 3= length of 1st piece in cm  x-4= length of 3rd piece in cm  then since you know they all came from the 20 cm ribbon you add them together and set them equal to 20x+ x-3 +x-4 = 20  3x - 7= 20  3x= 27  x= 9  the shortest piece is the third piece which is x- 4  x-4  9-4 = 5  the length of the smallest piece is 5 cm.  the other lengths are  9 cm  6 cm
