The answer is The total area of the top and bottom squares. s = ā7 cm is irrational value and we need rational value. Let's check all choices: A. The volume. V = (s)^3. If s = ā7, V = (ā7)^3 = 7ā7 - irrational value. B. The perimeter of the front square. P = 4 * s = 4 * ā7 = 4ā7 - irrational value. C. The diagonal of the back square. d = sā2 = ā7 * ā2 = ā(7*2) = ā14 - irrational value. D. The total area of the top and bottom squares. A = 2 * s^2 = 2 * (ā7)^2 = 2 * 7 = 14 - rational value.
