Enter your answer as a decimal in the box.
yd²
Right triangular prism. Each base is a triangle whose legs are 13 in, 13 in, and 24 in. The height of the triangles is 5 in. The prism is oriented so that the side labeled 24 in is on the bottom. The distance between the bases is labeled 12 in.

Based on the mass of the circle and the triangle, we can find the mass of the square to be<u> 3.33 grams</u>
<h3>Mass of each side of hanger </h3>Assuming the mass of the square is x, the equation for the first side is:
= (3 x mass of circle) + (2 x mass of triangle) + (6 x mass of square)
= ( 3 x 2) + ( 2 x 4) + ( 6 × x)
= 6 + 8 + 6x
Mass of other side:
= (2 x mass of circle) + (5 x mass of triangle) + (3 x mass of square)
= ( 2 x 2) + ( 5 x 4) + ( 3 × x)
= 4 + 20 + 3x
<h3>Mass of square </h3>As both sides are equal, equate both formulas to find x:
6 + 8 + 6x = 4 + 20 + 3x
6x - 3x = 24 - 14
3x = 10
x = 10/3
x = 3.33 grams
In conclusion, each square is 3.33 grams.
