Surface Area of a Rectangular Warehouse

A warehouse in the shape of a rectangular prism has the following dimensions:

Length: 12 meters

Width: 8 meters

Height: 5 meters

To find the total surface area of the warehouse, we can use the formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism:

$$ SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh $$

where:

• $SA$ = surface area
• $l$ = length
• $w$ = width
• $h$ = height

Using the dimensions provided, what is the total surface area of the warehouse?
