Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

|((experimental - theoretical) / theoretical)| x 100

5.5 - 5.62 / 5.62 = -.0213

|-.0213| = .0213

.0213 x 100 = 2.13

Find the volume, in cubic inches, of a right rectangular prism with the measurements below.

yawa3891 [41]

The volume of the right rectangular prism is 6656 cubic inches, If the rectangular prism have a length of 32", width of 52" and height of 4".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

A right rectangular prism

Let, l - Length of the right rectangular prism

w - Width of the right rectangular prism

h - Height of the right rectangular prism

Step:1

From given,

l - 32 inches

w - 52 inches

h - 4 inches

Step:2

Formula for Volume of the Right rectangular prism,

$V = whl$ .............................................(1)

Substitute the values of w, h and l in Eqn (1)

= ( 52 × 4 × 32 )

V = 6656 $inches^{3}$

Result:

Thus the volume of the right rectangular prism is 6656 cubic inches, for the given dimensions of an right rectangular prism.

What is the volume of an equilateral triangular prism?

Nata [24]

Actually, the "slant height" is 4, but the vertical height or "altitude" of the equilateral triangle is not 4

but anyway..... $\bf \begin{array}{cllll}
\textit{height of an equilateral triangle}\\\\
h=\cfrac{s\sqrt{3}}{2}\\
----------\\
\textit{area of an equilateral triangle}\\\\
A=\cfrac{s^2\sqrt{3}}{4}
\end{array}\qquad s=\textit{length of one side}$

and the volume, is the area of the triangle, times the length, so, whatever you get for the area of the triangle * 10

To find the area to the total surface area is 1/2bh
The height would be 6.9 + itself to get the height
And the base is 16 bc 8+8
