Jordan built her cat tuna a new scratching post. she needs to cover the post with carpet.

how much carpet does jordan need to cover the surface of the post, including the bottom?

3800 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the surface of the rectangular prism shown.

The surface area is the area of all the surfaces (including the bottom and top).

There are 6 surfaces, top and bottom is squares and 4 sides are rectangles.

The area of square is side * side, and

The area of rectangle is length * width

Top Area = 10 * 10 = 100

Bottom Area = 10 * 10 = 100

Area of 1 side = 90 * 10 = 900

Hence, area of 4 of these same sides is:  900 * 4 = 3600

Total Surface Area = 3600 + 100 + 100 = 3800

Total Carpet Needed = 3800 square centimeters
