Question

The volume of a hexagonal prism is 10square root 3 in3. What is the height of the prism if the base area is 5square root 3 in3?

A)50^square root 3 in

B)2 in

C)50 in

D)2^square root 3 in

Answer 1

V = H*B

So H = V/B

Now if we have this:

\[H = \frac{ V }{ B } = \frac{ 10\sqrt 3 \in^3}{ 5 \sqrt 3 \in^2} = \frac{ 10 }{ 5 } = 2 inches\]

Answer 2

Oops:

Just take the \[\in = INCHES\]

Answer 3

thank you!
