A right rectangular prism has base dimensions of 3 inches by 12 inches and a height of 5 inches. An oblique rectangular prism has base dimensions of 4 inches by 9 inches and a height of 5 inches. Are the volumes the same?

a rectangular right prism area=legnth times width times height or base area times height

base=3 b y12, area=3 times 12=36
height=5
36 times 5=180

an oblique rectangular prism volume is the same as the right rectangular prism formula so
4 times 9 times 5=180

180=180
the volumes are the same
