Answer:
488.4 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of cling film needed = surface area of the triangular prism = 2(B.A) + P×H
Where,
B.A = triangular base area = ½*base*height
height = 10.5 cm
base = √(13.7² - 10.5²) = √77.44 = 8.8 cm
B.A = ½*8.8*10.5 = 46.2 cm²
P = perimeter of the triangular base = 10.5 + 13.7 + 8.8 = 33
H = height of prism = 12 cm
Surface area of triangular prism = 2(46.2) + 33*12
= 92.4 + 396
= 488.4 cm²
