The base of a right prism is an equilateral triangle whose side is 20 cm. If the height of this prism is 20\(\sqrt {3}\) cm, then what is the total surface area of prism? |
700\(\sqrt {3}\) cm2 750\(\sqrt {3}\) cm2 1400\(\sqrt {3}\) cm2 1200\(\sqrt {3}\) cm2 |
1400\(\sqrt {3}\) cm2 |
Total surface area of prism = CSA + 2 × base area = Base perimeter × Height + 2 × Base Area = 60 × 20\(\sqrt {3}\) + 2 × \(\frac{\sqrt {3}}{4}\) × 20 × 20 = 1200\(\sqrt {3}\) + 200\(\sqrt {3}\) = 1400\(\sqrt {3}\) cm2 |
