Assume the triangular prism has a base area of 49cm^2 and a volume of 588cm^3. What side length does the rectangular prism need to have the same volume?

Length = Width = 7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a triangular prism is represented by the formula,

Volume = (Area of the triangular base) × height

588 = 49 × h

h =

h = 12 cm

We have to find the side length of a rectangular prism having same volume.

Volume = Area of the rectangular base × height

588 = (l × b) × h [l = length and b = width ]

588 = (l × b) × 12

l × b = 49 = 7 × 7

Therefore, length = width = 7 cm may be the side lengths of the rectangular prism to have the same volume.
