The length of the rectangular parallelepiped is 8 m, the width is 6 m and the height is 12 m, find the sum of the areas.

A rectangular parallelepiped is a parallelepiped with each face represented by a rectangle.

Its surface area (sum of areas) is calculated by the formula:

S = 2 * (ab + bc + ac). Let’s find its value for such a figure, the dimensions of which are 8, 6 and 12 m:

S = 2 * (8 * 6 + 6 * 12 + 8 * 12) = 2 * (48 + 72 + 96) = 2 * 216 = 432 m².
