Answer:

4cm; 1.79 cm.

Explanation:

Okay, this question is about the Calculation involving the volume of a box with a square base and a height.

So, the volume of the box = length × width × height ---------------------------(1).

Therefore, we are going to make use of Equation (1) to determine the solution to this question, so that we have;

For Box A; We are given our volume to be equal to 32cm^3, height = 2cm, length and width = x cm.

For Box B = 32 = 2x^2.

x^2 = 16..

x = 4.

Note that Length = width.

For box B=> 32 = 10x^2.

x = √3.2 cm. = 1.79 cm.
