For volume of a prism, the general rule is multiply the area of the base by the area of the height. For example, for a triangular prism, the volume would be (1/2)b*h*a if you set a = height of the prism and h = height of the triangle from the formula (1/2)bh, which is the area of a triangle.

Answer:
Length = 12
Width = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Width = 6 miles less than length;
L = L
W = L - 6
Area = 72 ft²
Area = Length * width
Area = (L * L-6)
Area = L² - 6L
-
L² - 6L = 72
L² - 6L - 72 = 0
L² - 12L + 6L - 72 = 0
L(L - 12) +6(L - 12) = 0
L = 12 or L = - 6
L cannot be negative
Width = L - 6
Width = 12 - 6 = 6
Hence,
Dimension of rectangle :
Length = 12
Width = 6
