the area of base of the prism shown is 16 1/2 square centimeters and the hight is 10 1/4 centimeters. which equation can be used to determine the volume in square centimeters of the prism?
we know that
The volume of a prism is equal to
V=Bh
where
B is the area of the base
h is the height of the prism
In this problem we have
B=16 1/2 cm^2=16.5 cm^2
h=10 1/4 cm=10.25 cm
substitute the given values in the formula
V=(16.5)(10.25)
V=169.125 cm^3
