Cardboard box
We want to make a cardboard box-shaped quadrangular prism with a rhombic base. The rhombus has a side of 5 cm and 8 cm, one diagonal long. The height of the box is 12 cm. The box will be open at the top. How many square centimeters do we need if we calculate the overlap and joints need 5% of the cardboard?
