The base of a right prism is a trapezium whose lengths of parallel sides are 25 cm. and 11 cm. and the perpendicular distance between the parallel sides is 16 cm. If the height of the prism is 10 cm., then the volume of the prismis
-
- 1440 cu. cm.
- 1540 cu. cm.
- 2880 cu. cm.
- 960 cu. cm.
- 1440 cu. cm.
Correct Option: C
| Area of the base of prism = | (sum of parallel sides) × per-pendicular distance | |
| 2 |
| = | (25 + 11) × 16 | |
| 2 |
| = | × 36 × 16 = 288 sq. cm. | |
| 2 |
∴ Volume of prism = Area of base × height = 288 × 10 = 2880 cu. cm.
