What will be the volume of a 10 m high prism whose base is a regular polygon with each side 2 m and internal angle of 120°? Given(√3 = 1.7)1. 102 cm32. 204 m33. 51 m34. 102 m3

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 102 m3

Given-   

Height of prism = 10 m

Each Side of polygon = 2 m

Each interior angle = 120° 

Concept Used- 

Volume of Prism = Area of Base × Height 

Area of Hexagon = 3√3/2 × Side2

Each External Angle of a polygon = 360/n   [where n = number of sides of the polygon]

Calculation-

Exterior Angle = 180° - 120° 

⇒ 60° 

n = 360/60

⇒ 6

Hence the polygon is a regular hexagon.

Area of Hexagon = 3√3/2 × 22

⇒ 6√3 m2

∴ Volume of Prism = 6√3 × 10     ∵ √3 = 1.7(given)

⇒ 102 m3
