The volume of a hexagonal prism is 10 in (Radical sign)3. What is the height of the prism if the base area is 5 in (Radical sign)3? Answer 2 in 50 (Radical sign)3 in 50 in 2 (Radical sign)3in

OpenStudy (eyust707):

Volume = base x height

OpenStudy (eyust707):

Volume = 10 base = 5

OpenStudy (eyust707):

solve for height

What do I do with the radical 3

OpenStudy (eyust707):

is it like this \[10 inch^3 \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it's 10 Radical sign 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[10 \sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (eyust707):

oh just treat it like a number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so B?

OpenStudy (eyust707):

Volume = 10rt(3) Base = 5rt(3) Volume = Base x Height 10rt3 = 5rt3 * Height Height = 10rt3/5rt3
