Given the cuboid of the figure:
The area of the base of the cuboid is 15 cm²,
The length of the lateral edge is 3 cm.
what is the volume of the cuboid
To calculate the volume of a cuboid we need the length, width, and height.
It is important to note that in the exercise we are given the height and the base area of the cuboid.
The base area is actually the area multiplied by the length. That is, it is the data that contains the two pieces of information we are missing.
Therefore, we can calculate the area by height * base area
15*3 = 45
This is the solution!
