where b is the base, h is the height of the prism, s is the slant height of the pyramid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay , i'm a little confused on the slant height, would it be the 3.3 , the height 2.5 and the base 4.5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

s = 3.3 h = 6 b = 4.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its showing the height is 2.5 though on the pyramid

OpenStudy (anonymous):

h is for the height of the prism
