Question

A right rectangular prism has an area of of 20 square units and a height of 3 squared units what is the volume?

Answer 1

you sure dude-?

Answer 2

To find the volume of a right rectangular prism, you can use the formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]

From the problem, we know that the area of the base is 20 square units and the height is \(3^2\) square units. First, let's calculate the height:

\[
3^2 = 9 \text{ square units}
\]

Now we can substitute the base area and height into the volume formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = 20 \text{ square units} \times 9 \text{ square units}
\]

Calculating the volume:

\[
\text{Volume} = 20 \times 9 = 180 \text{ cubic units}
\]

Thus, the volume of the right rectangular prism is \(180\) cubic units.

Answer 3

Let's double-check the calculations to ensure everything is correct.

1. **Area of the base**: \(20\) square units (as given).
2. **Height**: You mentioned a height of \(3\) squared units. So,
\[
3^2 = 9 \text{ units}
\]

3. **Volume formula**:
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]

Now substituting the numbers:
\[
\text{Volume} = 20 \text{ square units} \times 9 \text{ units}
\]

Calculating this gives:
\[
\text{Volume} = 20 \times 9 = 180 \text{ cubic units}
\]

So, the volume is indeed \(180\) cubic units.
