What is the volume of the trapezoidal right prism? A. 70 m3 B. 196 m3 C. 98 m3 D. 392 m3 http://lv.k12.com/mediaFiles/Ninth_Grade/Math/Unit17866/Lesson69393/VHS_PA_S2_05_L203_L303_LQ_Q5.gif I think it B 198

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

find the area of the trapezoidal face and then multiply by the height of the prism

OpenStudy (rayman5766):

your saying this because B is not right I am guessing

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

I have no idea... I didn't do the calculation.... but the method I posted is what you need to do

OpenStudy (rayman5766):

I did

OpenStudy (rayman5766):

well am I correct

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

your guess...?

OpenStudy (igreen):

B is correct.

OpenStudy (igreen):

\(V = \dfrac{1}{2}h(a + b)l\) \(V = \dfrac{1}{2}(7)(20 + 8)(2)\) \(V = \dfrac{1}{2}(7)(28)(2)\) \(V = (3.5)(28)(2)\) \(V = (98)(2)\) \(V = 196\)

OpenStudy (rayman5766):

i knew it yeaaaaaaaaaa

OpenStudy (igreen):

Nice work \(\Huge\ddot\smile\)
