What is the lateral area of the rectangular prism? Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Assume the 3 m x 5 m rectangles on the left and right are the bases. The diagram is not to scale.
We exclude bases for lateral area, so there are 4 sides. Each area of each of the sides can be found by 3*5. so, we have (3*5)*4, which equals 60 square meters.
