This was very informative. Why do textbooks make it seem so complicated?

[@buggaboo3279]

cuz you have to read it. its easy when somrbody who knows what theyre doing is explaining it

[@paigewinters6048]

Yah and my teacher makes it so confusing

Just a suggestion you can just times the area of the square by 2 because theres 2 square bases and then times the area of the rectangle by four for the same reason

I got confused on the triangular prism

[@vaugnstein6537]

Blue Tube do that method but divide it by 2 because if you just leave it that will be the surface area of a cuboid but if you divide it by 2 that will be a triangle
