Question

A right rectangular prism with square bases has a height of 20cm and a volume of 800 cubic centimeters. Which statements describe the prism?

Answer 1

The area of the rectangular prism is 40cm²

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of a rectangular prism we have to use the following formula:

a = area

v = volume = 800 cm³

h = height = 20 cm

v = a * h

we replace the values that ​​we know

800cm³ = a * 20cm

800cm³ / 20cm = a

40cm² = a

v = 70ft³

The area of the rectangular prism is 40cm²
