Answer:
72 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the area of each face and then sum them.
area of base = 4 × 5 = 20 ft²
area of back = 5 × 3 = 15 ft²
area of sloping face = 5 × 5 = 25 ft²
area of 2 triangular faces = 2 × [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 4 × 3 = 4 × 3 = 12 ft²
Thus
surface area = 20 + 15 + 25 + 12 = 72 ft²
