a)

Volume of a prism is given by:

Area of base x height.

(2c2)(3c4)

b)

(2c2)(3c4)=6c214c+8

c)

(2(2)2)(3(2)4)=4

6(2)214(2)+8=4

d)

The surface area is the sum of all the areas of the 6 faces of the prism. Sides opposite each other have the same area, so there are 3 pairs of areas;

From diagram these are:

2×(2c2)(3c4)=12c228c+16

2×(2c2)(c+7)=4c2+24c28

2×(3c4)(c+7)=6c2+34c56

We add these results together:

88812c228c+16

88884c2+24c28

88886c2+34c56

=822c2+30c68
