The bases of a right prism are parallelograms with length of one of its sides a=8.5 cm and altitude to that side ha = 4 cm. Find the volume of the prism, if the height is h=14 cm.
Volume is given by: V=(base area)×(height) base area=bh where: b=base=8.5 cm h=height= 4 cm thus base area=8.5×4=34 cm² Thus the volume will be: V=34×14 V=476 cm³
