A rectangular prism has a base area of 15 cm2 , and pyramid with a congruent base and height has a volume of 20 cm3 . What is the height of the rectangular prism?(
The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula V = base area x height. Since the base area is 15 cm^2 and the volume is 20 cm^3, we can set up the equation:
15 x h = 20
Solving for h (height):
h = 20 / 15
h = 1.33 cm
Therefore, the height of the rectangular prism is 1.33 cm.
