Answer: Crissy is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The volume of the rectangular prism is [tex]360\ units^3[/tex]
The height of the prism is [tex]h=10\ units[/tex]
Suppose A is the area of the base
So, the volume is given by
[tex]\Rightarrow V=A\times h[/tex]
Insert the values
[tex]\Rightarrow 360=A\times 10\\\Rightarrow A=36\ \text{or}\ 6\times 6\ units^2[/tex]
As 36 is the perfect square of 6, therefore, the base is a square with the dimension of [tex]6\times 6\ units^2[/tex]
Crissy's claim is correct.
