A rectangular prism has a base area of 25in 2 and a volume of 125in.3. if a rectangular pyramid has a congruent base and height congruent to the prism, what is the height of the pyramid?

Answer 1

First, we need to find the dimensions of the rectangular prism.

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula:

Volume = base area x height

125in^3 = 25in^2 x height

height = 125in^3 / 25in^2
height = 5in

Since the rectangular pyramid has the same base area and height as the prism, the height of the pyramid is also 5in.
