Solution:

We know that:

  • Volume of rectangular prism = L × B × H = 90 ft³

Substitute the length, breadth, and height to find the volume of the rectangular prism.

  • => 3 × 3 × H = 90 ft³

Now, let's simplify the LHS.

  • => 9 × H = 90 ft³

Further simplify the equation by dividing 9 both sides.

  • => 9 × H/9 = 90 ft/9
  • => H = 10 ft

Thus, the height of the rectangular prism is 10 feet.
