Right trapezoidal prism*

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hint: Volume of prism = (Area of base) * (height)

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

oh ok thats easy Thanks! I thought it was something way more complicated

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the base is this trapezoid |dw:1400819762803:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yeah it's not too bad and it applies to any prism

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

have a look at theorem 4 http://www.regentsprep.org/Regents/math/geometry/GP15/CircleAngles.htm

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

what about this one

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I think you'd have to know something about the length that's near the x (not x itself)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

oh wait, one sec

OpenStudy (elisaneedshelp):

Ok
