Question

Pat used unit cubes to build a right rectangular prism with a volume of 32 cubic units. The height of the prism is 4 units.
What figure could be the bottom layer of the prism?

Answer 1

Right rectangular prism: In a right rectangular prism, the angle between the base and its sides is a right angle.

Solution:

• The volume of the prism is 32 cubic units and height is 4 units.

• So area of base = 32 / 4 square units = 8 square units

• Since 8 is not a perfect square and the base is also made of unit cubes, the base will be a rectangle with an area of 8 square units.

Answer: The bottom layer of the prism could be a rectangle.
