The lateral surface area is the surface area of the sides is (5+12+13)20 = 600
The total area includes the area of the top and bottom. 2 * 1/2 * 5 * 12 = 60
60 + 600 = 660
The volume is Bh = 1/2*5*12*20 = 600

If you are referring to the other triangular prism questions, if these were triangular pyramids, I would understand, but I don't know if slant height makes sense for a triangular prism.04/21/21
