Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFConcept used:
Square-based prism is generally cube or cuboid in shape
Calculation:
Total Height = 9
Height of each part = 3
Therefore ratio of area of First : Middle : Bottom
42 × 3 : 42 × 3 : 42 × 3
1 : 1 : 1
When the prism is cut in three parts of equal heights then the volumes of all parts are equal
So, the ratio of the volume of the top, middle and the bottom part = 1: 1: 1
∴ The required ratio is 1 ∶ 1 ∶ 1
