It is a prismatic shape. It may not be a prism since that term refers to polygonal bases and there is no requirement in the question that the base is polygonal.
no, height is how tall it is and base is the bottom of the shape.
Of a square? (area/height=base) Of a triangle? ({area/height}/2=base) Or of some other shape?
If the shape in question is a triangle, then Area = 0.5 * Base * Height So Height = 2 * Area / Base
You find the length and height of the shape, them you find the volume
No
The question does not specify what the shape is!
There is no relationship, in the sense that you can have any base are with any height. For a prism shape (if the horizontal cross section is always the same as the base), the base area times the height is equal to the volume.
you do base multiplied by height
triangle
A rectangle is a good, simple shape to begin with. The area of a rectangle is equal to the product of the length of its base and the length of its height. The height is a segment that is perpendicular to the base. For a rectangle, the base and height are often called the "length" and the "width", and sometimes the height is referred to as the "altitude."
The area of a parallelogram is just the base times the height. Caution! The height is not the length of the slanted side on the left or right side of the parallelogram. The height is the distance from the top of the shape to the bottom of the shape measured along the perpendicular (perpendicularly). Area of a Parallelogram = Base times Height
Base: Depending on the shape of the base, use the formula for a square, a regular polygon, etc. Height: This must be measured (or calculated) perpendicular to the base.
