Sum of the lengths of the edges =n h+2 s, where h= height, s= perimeter of the base, and n= number of sides of the base.

Q. The sides of a pentagonal prism are $10 c m, 12 c m, 15 c m, 8 c m,$ and $6 c m$ . Its height is $14 c m$ . Find the total length of its edges.

172 cm

162 cm

182 cm

152 cm

Sum of the lengths of the edges $= nh + 2 s$ , where $h =$ height, $s =$ perimeter of the base, and $n =$ number of sides of the base.
