Question

The oblique prism has a rectangular base with a width of 10 units and a length of 13 units. The top base extends 8 units to the right of the bottom base. What is the volume of the prism?

Answer 1

1950 cubic units

Answer 2

`1040` cubic units

Explanation:

The volume of any oblique geometric shape is equal to the product of area of its base and the height from which its top extends to its bottom base.

Mathematically, it can be represented as -

`V = (Area_(base) * height)\\`

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

`V = (10 * 13) * 8 \\V = 1040\\` cubic unit.
