How do you find the base area of a rectangular prism if you know the volume and the height
You can only find the area of the base with this information.The volume divided by the height will give you the area of the base.
but when it is just a figure with no numbers on it then what??
how do you find the area of the base
B=8x8
240 cubic prism
585 cm2
To find the base area of a rectangular prism, if you know the volume and the height, you can use the formula V = A * h, where V is the volume, A is the base area, and h is the height.
To find the base area, you need to rearrange the formula and solve for A.
1. Divide both sides of the equation by the height: V/h = A * h / h
2. Cancel out h on the right side of the equation: V/h = A
3. Simplify the equation: A = V/h
By using this formula, you can calculate the base area of a rectangular prism if you know the volume and the height.
