For this problem, we use the Pythagorean theorem which is a relationship for the side length of a right triangle. It is expressed as:

c² = a² + b²

where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

155² = 124² + b²
b² = 155² - 124²
b = 93 cm

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

It is the square root of 155^2-124^2 according to Pythagorean's theorem, which is equal to 97, so it is B.

A rectangular prism has a volume of 240 cubic feet. If the length is 4 feet and the width is 4 feet, what is the height of
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Let's use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism;

V = l · w · h

Where 'l' represents the length, 'w' stands for the width, and 'h' displays as the height. (V evidently stands for the volume)

<u>What we know:</u>

  • Volume = 240 ft
  • Length = 4 ft
  • Width = 4 ft

<u>What we need to find out:</u>

  • Height

Let's plug in what we know into the formula:

V = l · w · h

<u>240</u> = <u>4</u> · <u>4</u> · h

Now let's solve for h:-

240 = 16 · h

240 = 16h

Get rid of h's co-efficient by dividing 16 from both sides because the inverse operation of multiplication(since 16 is being multiplied by h) is division.

÷16    ÷16

Finally, you would end up with a result of:

<u>15</u> = h

Hence, the height of this prism is <u>15 feet</u>.
