The right rectangular prism shown below is made of equal-sized cubes. The side length of each cube is 2 1/2 inches. What is the
1 answer:
The image of the right rectangular prism is missing, so i have attached it.
Answer:
volume of the right rectangular prism = 625 in³
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangular prism is made of equal-sized cubes. Thus, let's first find the volume of 1 cube.
Formula for volume of one cube is;
V = a³
where
a is the length of one side of the cube
We are told that this length is 2½ inches
Thus;
a = 2½ = 5/2 inches
>> V = (5/2)³
>> V = 125/8 in³
Now, in the rectangular prism attached, if we count the number of cubes we have, it is equal to 40 cubes
Therefore, the volume of the prism is;
Volume of one cube × 40
>> volume of the prism = (125/8) × 40
volume of the prism = 625 in³

I have drawn three obtuse angles showing three different positions.
then taken a point p inside it.
Now to draw perpendicular from a point to a given line
we draw a line parallel fom that point to that given line.
After that from that point we draw perpendicular to that line.
Now the question arises which side is closer to point p ,
The answer is if length of perpendicular from p to the line is longer that side is farther from the point p , and if the length of perpendicular is shorter then that that line is nearer to point P.
