The dimensions of the rectangular prism are:
Length x Width x Height = Base Area x Height = 25in x Height
And its volume is:
Volume = Base Area x Height = 125in
Therefore, the height of the rectangular prism is 5in.
Since the rectangular pyramid has a congruent base and height to the prism, its base area is also 25in and its volume is:
Volume = (1/3) x Base Area x Height
Substituting the values we know:
125in = (1/3) x 25in x Height
Solving for Height:
Height = 15in
Therefore, the height of the rectangular pyramid is 15in.
A rectangular prism has a base area of 25in and a volume of 125in. If the rectangular Pyramid has a congruent base and height congruent to the prism what is the height of the Pyramid
