Question

1. The dimensions of a rectangular prism are shown. What is the volume of the rectangular prism in cubic inches:
2.7 in 5 in 7 in

2. What is the area of the parallelogram in square centimeters? (Enter number only)

8cm. 5.5 cm 12cm

Answer 1

1. To find the volume of a rectangular prism, use the formula:

\[
\text{Volume} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \times \text{height}
\]

For the given dimensions:

- Length = 2.7 inches
- Width = 5 inches
- Height = 7 inches

Calculating the volume:

\[
\text{Volume} = 2.7 \times 5 \times 7 = 94.5 \text{ cubic inches}
\]

So, the volume of the rectangular prism is **94.5** cubic inches.

2. To find the area of the parallelogram, use the formula:

\[
\text{Area} = \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]

Here, the base is given as 12 cm and the height is 5.5 cm.

Calculating the area:

\[
\text{Area} = 12 \times 5.5 = 66 \text{ square centimeters}
\]

So, the area of the parallelogram is **66** square centimeters.
