Question

An oblique prism is created using rhombuses with edge lengths of 25 units. The area of one rhombus is 600 square units. The perpendicular distance between the bases is 24 units.

What is the volume of the prism?
14,400 cubic units
15,000 cubic units
29,400 cubic units
36,000 cubic units

Answer 1

14,400 cubic units

Explanation:

We are given that An oblique prism is created using rhombuses with edge lengths of 25 units.

Area of each rhombus : 600 square units.

The perpendicular distance between the bases is 24 units.

Since volume =
`\text{Area of Base} * Height`

Area of Base = Area of one rhombus = 24 units

Height = 24 units .

So, volume of the prism =
`600 * 24`

=
`14400 units^3`

Hence the volume of prism is 14,400 cubic units

Answer 2

Volume = area of base x perpendicular distance
= 600 x 24 = 14,400 cubic units
