a is not area it is apothem and it means the height

jhonyy9:

so there is a cube and a rectangular prisme you need calcule volume of cube with side length ,,a" and the volume of rectangular prism with square base with side length ,,a" and height equal 2a

jhonyy9:

formula for volume of a cube = ?

jhonyy9:

=a^3

jhonyy9:

and volume of a rectangular prisme = ?

jhonyy9:

= area of base time height

mathisboring792:

X^3

jhonyy9:

= a^2 *2a = 2a^3

jhonyy9:

Volume total = a^3 +2a^3 = ?

jhonyy9:

=3a^3 and now you know that a= 3 inches so will be = 3*3^3 = ?

jhonyy9:

3^3 = 3*3*3 = 27 3*27 = ?

mathisboring792:
