Question
Find the height $ h $ of a triangular prism if side $a = 3.2\, \text{cm}$ and length $l = 1.6\, \text{cm}$.
Answer
$2.7713\, \text{cm}$
Explanation
To find height $ h $ use formula:
$$ h = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot a }{ 2 } $$After substituting $a = 3.2\, \text{cm}$ we have:
$$ h = \dfrac{ \sqrt{ 3 } \cdot 3.2\, \text{cm} }{ 2 } $$$$ h = \dfrac{ 5.5426\, \text{cm} }{ 2 } $$ $$ h \approx 2.7713\, \text{cm} $$This page was created using
