Question

A cuboid has a square base.

Answer 1

The length of one side of the square base is 8.5 centimeters.

Given the following data:

• Volume of cuboid = 867 cm

• Height = 12 cm

To find the length of one side of the square base:

Mathematically, the volume of a cuboid is given by the formula:

$Volume = Base \; area$ × $Height$

Substituting the given values, we have:

$867 = Base \; area$ × $12$

$Base\;area = \frac{867}{12}$

Base area = 72.225 $cm^2$

Now, we can find the length by using the formula:

$Area \;of\;a \;square = length^2$

$72.25 = length^2$

$Length = \sqrt{72.25}$

Length = 8.5 centimeters.

Therefore, the length of one side of the square base is 8.5 centimeters.
