P
The cross-sectional areas of a triangular prism and a right cylinder are congruent. The triangular prism has a height of 5 units, and the right cylinder has a height of 5 units. Which
conclusion can be made from the given information?
O The volume of the prism is half the volume of the cylinder.
O The volume of the prism is twice the volume of the cylinder.
The volume of the prism is equal to the volume of the cylinder.
O The volume of the prism is not equal to the volume of the cylinder.
N

Answer 1

Both the triangular prism and the right cylinder have congruent cross-sectional areas and the same height, which means that their volumes are equal according to the formula V = Ah.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks about the volumes of a triangular prism and a right cylinder, given that they have congruent cross-sectional areas and the same height of 5 units. According to the formula for volume V = Ah, where A is the area of the base and h is the height, since both the prism and the cylinder have equal cross-sectional areas and equal heights, their volumes are also equal. Therefore, the conclusion that can be made from the given information is that the volume of the prism is equal to the volume of the cylinder.
