Question

An oblique hexagonal prism has a base area of 42 square cm. the prism is 4 cm tall and has an edge length of 5 cm.what is the volume of the prism?

Answer 1

The volume of the prism will be given by:
Volume=(base area)*(height)
base area=42 cm^2
height=4 cm
thus
Volume=42*4=168 cm^3

Answer 2

Answer:

$168\text{ cm}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:    

Since we know that volume of a prism can be found by multiplying the base area of prism by height of prism.

$\text{Volume of prism}=\text{Base area}\times \text{Height of the prism}$

Since our prism is an oblique hexagonal prism so our height will be 4 cm and 5 cm will be lateral side.

Now let us substitute our given values in volume formula of the prism.

$\text{Volume of oblique hexagonal prism}=42\text{ cm}^{2}\times 4\text{ cm}$

$\text{Volume of oblique hexagonal prism}=168\text{ cm}^{3}$

Therefore, the volume of our given oblique hexagonal prism will be 168 cubic centimeters.
