The perimeter of the base of the right pentagonal prism is 30 units

How to determine the perimeter of the base?

The given parameters are:

  • Volume = 840 cubic units
  • Height, h = 14 units
  • Apothem, a = 4 units

The volume of a right pentagonal prism is:

V = 0.5Pah

Where P represents the perimeter of the base.

So, we have:

0.5 * P * 14 * 4 = 840

Divide both sides by 0.5 * 14 * 4

P = 30

Hence, the perimeter of the base is 30 units
