The above figure is a Triangle of a Triangular Prisms with Square attached inside.
Given that Area is and and the height of the Triangular Prisms is

From the picture above, we can conclude that
Assume that the real A B is n
A B F Area = 2 A B × B F
2 5 = 2 n × 2 n
2 5 = n 2
n = 5
So A B = 5 and B F = 1 0 , now move to the next step
From the figure above, we also knew that Triangle A B F is congruent with Triangle A C E , so ;
B F A B = C E A C
1 0 5 = C E 1 5
C E = 3 0
Now find the area of the triangle,
2 1 5 × 3 0 = 2 2 5
Now find the Triangular Prisms Surface Area
A C × h + C E × h + A E × h + 2 ( A C E Area ) = Surface Area
1 5 × 1 5 + 3 0 × 1 5 + 1 5 2 + 3 0 2 × 1 5 + 2 ( 2 2 5 ) = Surface Area
1 6 2 8 . 1 1 5 . . . = Surface Area
By rounding the answer to zero decimal
1 6 2 8 = Surface Area
