What is the surface area of the triangular prism?

Answer:
Option B. [tex]724\ cm^{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The surface area of the triangular prism is equal to
[tex]SA=2B+PL[/tex]
where
B is the area of the triangular face
P is the perimeter of the triangular face
L is the length of the triangular prism
Find the area B
[tex]B=(8)(15)/2=60\ cm^{2}[/tex]
Find the perimeter P
[tex]P=(8+15+17)=40\ cm[/tex]
we have
[tex]L=15.1\ cm[/tex]
substitute the values
[tex]SA=2(60)+(40)(15.1)=724\ cm^{2}[/tex]
