Exercise 54 Page 10

How can the height help you find the volume of a prism?

h=9cm

Practice makes perfect

Generally, to find the volume of a prism we use a formula that relates the prism's height h and its base area B. V=Bh From the figure, we are given the volume V= 1323cm^3 and the base area B= 147cm^2 of a prism. By substituting these values into our equation, we will be able to use inverse operations to determine the value of h.

V=Bh

SubstituteII

V= 1323, B= 147

1323= 147* h

DivEqn

.LHS /147.=.RHS /147.

1323/147=147h/147
