Answer :

Surface area of the tent not including the floor = 2,336 ft²

Volume of the triangular prism tent = 6,720  ft³

How to Find the Surface Area and Volume of a Triangular Prism?

The tent has a shape of a triangular prism. Therefore:

Surface area of the tent not including the floor = PL + bh - (a × c) where,

P = perimeter of the triangular face of the tent = 14 + 25 + 25 = 64 ft

L = length of the triangular prism tent = 40 ft

b = base length of the triangular face = 14 ft

h = height of the triangular face = 24 ft

a = length of the rectangular floor = 40 ft

c = width of the rectangular floor = 14 ft

Surface area of the tent not including the floor = (64)(40) + (14)(24) - (40 × 14)

Surface area of the tent not including the floor = (2560) + (336) - (560)

Surface area of the tent not including the floor = 2,336 ft²

Volume of the triangular prism tent = 1/2 × 14 × 24 × 40

Volume of the triangular prism tent = 7 × 24 × 40

Volume of the triangular prism tent = 6,720  ft³
