    The area of the cross section that is parallel to the base of the rectangular prism is the product of the length and the width.

    Area = (4 inches) (3 inches) = 12 in²

    Also, the perimeter is equal to twice the sum of these parameters.

    Perimeter = 2 x (4 inches + 3 inches)

    = 14 inches
