The Surface Area Of The Right Rectangular Prism With Dimensions Shown Is 160cm2 The Figure Is Not Drawn To Scale What Is The Height Of The Prism class=

Answer :

Solution:

Note that:

  • Volume = LBH = 160 cm²

Substituting the values into the equation.

  • Volume = LBH = 160 cm²
  • => (5)(2)H = 160 cm²

Find the height (H).

  • => 10H = 160 cm²
  • => H = 16 cm

Height be x
