Question

Select the sketch of the right rectangular prism with height of 2cm and bases that are 5 cm by 3 cm.

Answer 1

Answer: See image

Explanation:

The bases are 5cm times 3cm, meaning that 2 parallel sides have to be 5cm by 3cm, 2 other parallel sides have to 2cm by 3cm, and the 2 other parallel sides have to be 5cm by 2cm.

Answer 2

The correct sketch has two parallel sides measuring 5 cm x 3 cm, two parallel sides measuring 2 cm x 3 cm, and two parallel sides measuring 5 cm x 2 cm.

Given the dimensions of the right rectangular prism - height of 2 cm and bases of 5 cm x 3 cm - we can identify the correct sketch among the options.

The correct sketch should have:

Two parallel sides measuring 5 cm x 3 cm, representing the bases of the prism.

Two parallel sides measuring 2 cm x 3 cm, representing the lateral faces of the prism.

Two parallel sides measuring 5 cm x 2 cm, representing the remaining lateral faces of the prism.
