Answer:

h = 18 cm

The height is 18 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given formula,


V=(1)/(3)\cdot B\cdot h

Where,

V = volume,

B = area of base,

h = height

Since,

V = 216 cm³

and

B = 36 cm²

We can substitute these values in the formula and find h:


\begin{gathered} V=(1)/(3)\cdot B\cdot h \\ 216=(1)/(3)\cdot36\cdot h \\ 216=(36)/(3)\cdot h \\ 216=12\cdot h \\ (216)/(12)=h \\ h=18 \end{gathered}

Answer:

h = 18 cm

Since h represents the height,

The height is 18 centimeters.
