4. Volumes of Prisms and Cylinders
Sign In
Use the formula for the volume of a prism.
About 3935.4 cubic centimeters
Let's analyze the given net.
After gluing together the appropriate sides of the same lengths, we get the following triangular prism.
We are asked to find the volume of the solid. We will use the formula for the volume of a prism. V=Bh Here, B represents the area of the base and h represents the height of the prism. This tells us that h=20 cm. The base is a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 31.4 cm and one leg that is 14 cm. Let x represent the second leg of the base.
