Question

A rectangular prism has a base of 19 ft by 8 ft and a diagonal of 25 ft. Identify its height. Round to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

Formulas for a rectangular prism:

Volume of Rectangular Prism:

V = lwh

Surface Area of Rectangular Prism:

S = 2(lw + lh + wh)

Space Diagonal of Rectangular Prism: (similar to the distance between 2 points)

d = √(l2 + w2 + h2)

A cube is a special case where l = w = h. So you can find the volume of a cube or surface area of a cube by setting these values equal to each other.

Answer 2

Answer:

14.1 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the lengths of all three sides to determine the perimeter of a triangle. This will tell you the prism's height.
