2 Rectangular Prism, Shifted Student Task Statement
The image shows two rectangular prisms. The bases of the prisms are congruent. Each base has
area B square units, and the prisms are the same height. A plane intersects the two prisms parallel
to their bases, creating cross sections.
1. Sketch the two cross sections. How do their shapes and areas compare to each other?
2. How would the shape or area of the cross sections change if we moved the plane up or down?
13. How do the volumes of the two prisms compare? Explain your reasoning
