Question

Find the volume of a right prism with height h=10 cm, if:

The base is a trapezoid with height htr = 3 cm and bases of 2 cm and 5cm

Answer 1

Answer:105cm to the power of three

Explanation:

Answer 2

The volume of the prism is:
V = Ab * h
Where,
Ab: base area
h: prism height
The area of the base is:
Ab = (1/2) * (B + b) * (htr)
Where,
B: major base
b: minor base
htr: height of the trapeze
Substituting values:
Ab = (1/2) * (5 + 2) * (3)
Ab = 10.5
Then, the volume is:
V = (10.5) * (10)
V = 105 cm ^ 3
Answer:
The volume of the right prism is:
V = 105 cm ^ 3
