The value of x is 3.....

Answer-

The value of x is 3 units.

Solution-

Here,

the volume of the prism with triangular base is 54 unit³

The base is a triangle with,

base = 4 units

height = x units

height of the prism = 3x

So, volume of the prism is,

[tex]V_{Prism}=Area_{Triangle}\times Height_{Prism}[/tex]

And

[tex]Area_{Triangle}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base\times Height_{Triangle}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4\times x=2x\ unit^2[/tex]

Then,

[tex]V_{Prism}=2x\times 3x=6x^2[/tex]

As the volume is given as 54 unit³, hence

[tex]\Rightarrow 6x^2=54[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x^2=9[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x=3[/tex]

Ignoring -ve values, as length can not be -ve.

Therefore, the value of x is 3 units.
