The height of each triangle attached to the square is 5 inches. The base of the triangle is the side of the square. What is the surface area of the solid?

Surface Area = inches²

OR

Surface Area ≈ 24.4 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface Area =

Where a = 2 inches and h = 5 inches

Surface Area =

Surface Area =

Surface Area = inches²

OR

Surface Area ≈ 24.4 inches²

24 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area= Area of square + 4* Area of triangle

Side of square= 2 in

Base of triangle= 2 in

Height of triangle= 5 in

Surface area= 2² + 4*1/2*2*5= 24 in²
