This example demonstrates how to construct rectangular prisms with a given surface area. It involves core mathematical concepts such as surface area calculation, solid geometry, and optimization problems. The construction utilizes GeoGebra commands like Ray, Prism, Net, Sequence, Translate, Vector, Mirror, RandomElement, Mode, IndexOf, Element, CountIf, If, along with objects like LENGTH, WIDTH, HEIGHT, A, B, C, f, g, h, Filling, D, E, d, F, G, H, faceADBE, faceAECF, faceADGF, faceBDGH, faceBECH, faceCFGH, edgeAE, edgeAD, edgeBD, edgeBE, edgeCE, edgeAF, edgeDG, edgeBH, edgeCF, edgeFG, edgeGH, edgeCH. It is suitable for high school students studying solid geometry and optimization problems.
