To find the surface area of a rectangular prism (assuming that’s what you are referring to), the formula is:
Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh,
where l = length, w = width, and h = height. If s represents the side length of a square base (let’s assume s = l = w = 2), and h is the height (h = 4), we can calculate it as follows:
1. Calculate the area of the bases: 2(2 * 2) = 8
2. Calculate the area of the sides: 2(2 * 4) = 16
3. Combine those: Surface Area = 8 + 16 = 24.
The correct answer is B) 24.
