To calculate the surface area of a rectangular prism, you need to find the area of each of the six faces and then add them together.
Given dimensions:
Length = 15 mm
Width = 12 mm
Height = 10 mm
The surface area of a rectangular prism can be calculated using the formula:
Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Substitute the given dimensions into the formula:
Surface Area = 2(15)(12) + 2(15)(10) + 2(12)(10)
Surface Area = 360 + 300 + 240
Surface Area = 900
The surface area of the rectangular prism is 900 square millimeters.
