Atent company has a tent design that is a triangular prism. the following is a net of the design.

if a = 68 inches, b = 69 inches, c = 44 inches, and d = 64 inches, how much fabric is needed to make the tent?

a. 22,264 sq in.

b. 15,236 sq in.

c. 14,080 sq in.

d. 23,460 sq. in

first...you have to split the net into three rectangles and two triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

triangular base area

1/2 bh = 1/2 (44 in)(64 in)

= 1/2 (2,816 sq in)

= 1,408 sq in.

2 x 1,408 sq in = 2,816 sq in.

step 2

end rectangle area

lw = (68 in)(69 in)

= 4,692 sq in

2 x 4,692 sq in = 9,384 sq in

Now find the area of the middle rectangle

lw - (69 in) (44 in) = 3,039 sq in.

then add all the areas together

2,816 + 9,384 + 3,036 = 15,236 sq in

hope this !
