Each vertical cross-section of the triangular prism shown below is an isosceles triangle. ih
8
What is the height, h, of the triangular prism?
Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

use Pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

where a = h

           b = 8/2  = 4

           c = 5

plugin values into the formula:

h² + 4² = 5²

h² = 5² - 4²

x = √9

x = 3

x = 25

step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

7^2+24^2=c^2

49+576=625

sqrt625=25

x=25

answer: the answer is 127 degrees
