A rectangular prism has a volume of 10 cubic units. If the length width and height of the prism are all each made 3 times as long what is the new volume?

270 units³

Step-by-step explanation:

l×w×h = 10

lwh = 10

New Volume = (3l)×(3w)×(3h)

= 27×lwh

= 27×10

= 270 units³

Alternately,

Since the sides are increased in the same ratio,

The two prisms are similar figures

For similar figures,

volume1/volume2 = (side1/side2)³

New Volume/10 = (3/1)³ = 27

New Volume = 270 units³

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
