Answer:

Height of the Cuboid = 5 cm

Explanation:


\bf \: Given:

Base area = 180 cm²

Volume = 900 cm³


\bf \: To \: find :

The height of the cuboid


\bf \: Solution:

We know that ,


\boxed{\sf \: Volume \: of \: Cuboid = base \: area * height}


\rm \: S o,put \: the \: values :


\sf \implies 900 = 180 * height

This is an equation which will help in finding the value of height.

Note: The answer would be in cm.


\bf \: Solve \: this \: equation.

Change their respective sides :


\sf \implies \: height *180 = 900

Now,


\sf \implies{height} = \cfrac{900}{180}

Cancel a zero of 900 and a zero 180:


\sf \implies{height} = \cfrac{90 \cancel0}{ 18\cancel0}


\sf \implies \: height = \cfrac{ 90}{18}

Cancel 90 and 18 :


\sf \implies{heigh}t = \cfrac{ \cancel{{90}}^5}{ \cancel{{18}} ^1 }


\sf \implies height = 5 \: cm

Hence, the height of the cuboid would be 5 cm .

I hope this helps!
