Rectangular Prism Surface Area Practice pg 33

Show your work on page 33 in your notebook.
Take a few minutes to interact with the rectangular prism shown here. After doing so, create one that has a length = 4 units, width = 5 units, and height = 3 units.
Task 1
How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 [b][color=#ff00ff]pink face[/color][/b]?
Task 2
How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 [b][color=#bf9000]gold face[/color][/b]?
Task 3
How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 [b]white face[/b]?
Task 4
Use your answers above to determine the TOTAL SURFACE AREA of this rectangular prism. [br]That is, how many square units, or squares, cover the ENTIRE SURFACE of this rectangular prism?
Now create a rectangular prism that has a length = 8 units, width = 3 units, and height = 5 units.
Task 5
How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 [b][color=#ff00ff]pink face[/color][/b]?
Task 6
How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 [b][color=#bf9000]gold face[/color][/b]?
Task 7
How many square units (i.e. "squares") appear on 1 [b]white face[/b]?
Task 8
Use your answers from above to determine the TOTAL SURFACE AREA of this rectangular prism. [br]That is, how many square units, or squares, cover the ENTIRE SURFACE of this rectangular prism?
Task 9
Overall, how we can determine the total surface area (number of squares) that cover the entire surface of a rectangular prism? Describe.
