[naive iron]

how can i do this?

[tired summit]

Look at the surfaces

Add up the areas of them

[naive iron]

wdym

[tired summit]

what do you think surface means

[naive iron]

like the top

[tired summit]

yes

Like the surface of your hand

is just the skin around your hand right?

[naive iron]

yes

[tired summit]

so just get the skin around the box

[naive iron]

wdymm

[tired summit]

do you know how to get the surface area of a square?

[naive iron]

LxW?

[tired summit]

How many squares are in the picture you sent

[naive iron]

1

[tired summit]

what

[naive iron]

3?

[tired summit]

Do you know how to count?

[naive iron]

yes?

[tired summit]

go count

[naive iron]

there 3

or

4

5?

6?

7?

[tired summit]

what are you counting

[naive iron]

8?

idk

[tired summit]

bro

[naive iron]

am just guessing

[tired summit]

do you know what a square looks like?

[naive iron]

yes

[tired summit]

square I meant rectangle

go into the image

and look for all the rectangles

like

[naive iron]

8?

[tired summit]

you counted 8?

[naive iron]

yes ?

i see 8?

arent we counting the sides?

[tired summit]

Draw a picture for me where you highlight all eight rectangles

[naive iron]

?

[tired summit]

what

those are vertexes

[naive iron]

OH

then how am i suppose to count?

[tired summit]

count the rectangles

this is a rectangle

[naive iron]

3?

2?

wait

4

[tired summit]

draw a picture where you highlight all five

[naive iron]

wait 5 actually

right?

[tired summit]

no

did you forget to include the one in the front of the rectangular prism or the back?

or did you forget the left one?

[naive iron]

then 10?

[tired summit]

what??

5+1 = 10?

COUNT!

maybe it would help

if you tried to make the prism with pieces of paper

[naive iron]

no

[naive iron]

6

[tired summit]

Draw a picture highlighting all 6 then

[naive iron]

WHYY

[tired summit]

because

it might not be 6

[naive iron]

bc what

yes it is

[tired summit]

how do you know?

[naive iron]

there

[tired summit]

nice

4 around the sides
1 on top
and 1 on the bottom

now you know where the six rectangles are

how would you find the lengths and widths of them

[naive iron]

lxw

[tired summit]

What is the length & width of the rectangle #2

[naive iron]

am done

i cant do this no more

😭

[tired summit]

You were so close!

[naive iron]

i have like 7

and their due tmr

[tired summit]

If you can solve one you can solve the rest

[naive iron]

no i cant ik myselff

[tired summit]

They're all the same question Just with slightly different values

[naive iron]

ok ill try

[naive iron]

idk

[tired summit]

Who is your teacher?

I'll beat them up for you

[naive iron]

i just dont understand itttt

she says do u guys understand

and i just say sure

[tired summit]

Don't say sure

Say no

[naive iron]

ik but like

its all the parts

that i dont get

[tired summit]

but like you want to fail?

Then tell them that

[naive iron]

no hell no

i need a lot of time to learnnn

[tired summit]

You don't need a lot of time to learn. You just need to ask for help when it's offered instead of saying sure

[naive iron]

but like everyone else understands it

just me i dont

[tired summit]

and?

[naive iron]

wdym and

[tired summit]

ask for help and you'll understand it too

[naive iron]

ok ok

but

[tired summit]

there is no but

ask for help

[naive iron]

ok

[tired summit]

Next time you don't understand raise your hand and tell them what you don't understand.
Explain how you're trying to solve the problem like you did in this channel so you teacher is able to see what you're doing wrong

[naive iron]

ok ill try

[tired summit]

Do you know what the numbers in this image are assigned/pointing to?

[naive iron]

is that whats their assigned/pointing too?

[tired summit]

What part of the prism are the numbers assigned to?

[naive iron]

lateral face?

[tired summit]

Face, Vertex or edge

[naive iron]

face

[tired summit]

so you think a 2D rectangle is 15in

[naive iron]

ye?

no

mybe

[tired summit]

It's 2D

any measure that is two dimensional has two dimensions

15 inch is one dimensional

Think of a line that is 15 inches long

Its 1 dimensional because it's just a straight line

[naive iron]

what if the line wasnt straight?

[tired summit]

If you're measuring it's length it would still be 1 dimensional

anyways! quick answer

what is

[naive iron]

why quick

[naive iron]

what is what

[tired summit]

because this is taking too long

[naive iron]

u dont have to help me i still have a lot more

[tired summit]

the 7, 5 and 15 refer the the edge lengths of the prism
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1096278402350190702/1096284346102587402/Rectangular-Prism.png

If you look at the image you can see that the edges are straight lines

the edges also happen to be the length and width of the faces

Every face/rectangle in the image is surround by 4 edges

edges of opposite sides of rectangles are the same value

so you only have two unique values between the 4 edges

those two values are the length and width

[naive iron]

OHH

i get ittt

[tired summit]

what is the length and width of rectangle #3

if you can figure that out you can figure out the length and width of three of the other rectangles

because they all share the same length and width

[naive iron]

4?

[tired summit]

Then you would only have to figure out the length and width of the other two which also share the same length and width

[tired summit]

4?

[naive iron]

what am i suppose to do with #3

[tired summit]

what is it's length and width

[naive iron]

uhm

[tired summit]

😭

[naive iron]

we can stop

sorryy am taking over ur timee

[tired summit]

I got nothing better to do but okay

[naive iron]

tysm

[halcyon horizon]

it would improve one's teaching skill if she can in the end would understood it

and fort the people tried to help

try to use techniques as if you teach/explain it to a lay person
