An oblique prism with a square base of edge length x units has a volume of 1/2x^3 cubic units. which expression represents the height of the prism? x units 1/2x units 2x units x squareroot of 2 units

The answer is 1/2x unitsgood luck =]

The volume of an oblique prism is length x width x height, or base times height.    the base is x^2 (length of x times width of x). if the volume is 1/2x^3, then to find the height, rearrange the first equation as so:     h = v/(lw) = volume/base = (1/2x^3)/(x^2) = 1/2x.    therefire, the answer is 1/2x units.

The lateral side of a triangular pyramid is a triangle. in order to increase the lateral surface area, the slant height and the height should be altered
