Chapter 12, Problem 8MCQ

To determine

To calculate:To find the volume of the prism

Answer to Problem 8MCQ

The volume of prism is $38.5c{m}^3$

Explanation of Solution

Given information:Prism is as follows:

  

Formula Used:

Volume of prism is calculated as follows:

  $Volume=Bh$

Where,

  $B=$ Base area

  $h=$ Height of prim

Area of triangle can be calculated using Hero’s formula

  $A=\frac{1}{2}\times Base\times Height$

Calculation:

Prism is given as follows:

  

Volume prism is calculated as follows:

  $Volume=Bh$

Substituting the values, volume is

  $\begin{array}{l}Volume=\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 7.7\times 5\\ Volume=1\times 7.7\times 5\\ Volume=38.5\end{array}$

Conclusion:

Hence, volume of prism is $38.5c{m}^3$
