Lincoln is wrapping a rectangular shaped present. The length of the present is 4 inches, the width is 8 inches and the height is 15 inches. How much wrapping paper will Lincoln need?

Respuesta :

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the wrapping paper required,

we must find the Total Surface Area of the box

As we know, the TSA of a cuboid= 2 (lh+bh+lb)

Here,

Total Surface Area of the cuboid=

[tex]2(4 \times 8 + 8 \times 15 + 15 \times 4)[/tex]

[tex] = 2(32 + 120 + 60)[/tex]

[tex] = 2(212)[/tex]

[tex] = 414 \: inches^2[/tex]
