The required height of the pentagonal prism is 19 cm

Given that,
A figure of a pentagon prism is shown with
The volume of the prism = 2850 cubic cm
Side of pentagon base = 12 mm.
And the perpendicular distance from the center to the side = 5 mm.

What is volume?

Volume is defined as the ratio of the mass of an object to its density.
Or in mathematics volume can be calculated as the area of the base multiplied by the height.

In order to get the height of the prism first, we have to calculate the area of the base and then divide the volume by its base area to get its height.

The base area = 5/2 * side * perpendicular height to side from center.
= 5 / 2 * 12 * 5
= 150
The volume of the prism = base area * height
2850 = 150 * height
height = 2850/15
= 19 cm

Thus, the required height of the pentagonal prism is 19 cm
