Answer:
The height of the tent = 3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Question
Syrus is buying a tent with the dimensions shown below. The volume inside the tent is 36 feet^3. Syrus isn't sure if the tent will be tall enough for him to sit up inside. The tent is the shape of triangular prism whose length is 6 feet and width is 4 feet. What is the height of the tent?
Given:
Length of the tent = 6 feet
Width of the tent = 4 feet
Volume of the tent = 36 [tex]feet^3[/tex]
To find the height of the tent.
Solution:
Since the ten is in shape of triangular prism, so the volume of traingular prism is given as:
[tex]V=\frac{1}{2}\times l\times w\times h[/tex]
where [tex]l[/tex] represents length, [tex]w[/tex] represents width and [tex]h[/tex] represents height of the prism.
Plugging in the know values of the dimension of the tent and the volume to find the height of the tent.
[tex]36=\frac{1}{2}\times 6\times 4\times h[/tex]
Simplifying.
[tex]36=12h[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 12.
[tex]\frac{36}{12}=\frac{12h}{12}[/tex]
[tex]3=h[/tex]
∴ [tex]h=3[/tex]
Thus, the height of the tent = 3 feet
