is this correct
Assuming the paper dimensions are 8x10 inches,
A: Tall rectangular prism
length = 8 inches
width = 2 inches (1/4 of 8 inches)
height = 10 inches
Volume = 8 x 2 x 10 = 160 cubic inches
B: Short rectangular prism
length = 2 inches (1/4 of 8 inches)
width = 8 inches
height = 10 inches
Volume = 2 x 8 x 10 = 160 cubic inches
C: Tall cylinder
radius = 1.75 inches (half of the diameter)
height = 10 inches
Volume = 1.75 x 1.75 x 3.14 x 10 = 96.625 cubic inches
D: Short cylinder
radius = 1.75 inches (half of the diameter)
height = 2 inches (1/4 of 8 inches)
Volume = 1.75 x 1.75 x 3.14 x 2 = 19.325 cubic inches
