The surface area of a rectangular prism is
Tap to reveal answer
The surface area of a rectangular prism with sides 
, 
, and 
is given as:
.
Two sides are known; it does not matter how they are designated, but for this problem let 
and 
, with 
as the unknown side. This yields equality:
Now that the three dimensions are known, it's possible to calculate the volume:
The surface area of a rectangular prism with sides
Two sides are known; it does not matter how they are designated, but for this problem let
