Answer:

Option b. 256 units2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The lateral area of the prism is equal to

[tex]LA=PH[/tex]

where

P is the perimeter of the base

H is the height of the prism

Find the perimeter of the base

The base is a square

so

[tex]P=4(8)=32\ units[/tex]

we have

[tex]H=8\ units[/tex]

substitute in the formula

[tex]LA=(32)(8)=256\ units^{2}[/tex]
