Question

3. Find the lateral surface area of the following right prism.
4 cm
4 cm​

Answer 1

$\sf \: Lateral \: surface \: area \: of \: prism \: is \: =4(4 \times 4)=64 sq cm.$

Given is the prism which is cube in shape having length of each side equals to 4.

Lateral surface area of cube is equal to total surface area of cube excluding base and its top, that is 4 times of surface area of each square side of cube.

therefore, lateral surface area of prism is=4(4×4)=64 sq cm.
