Roger is building a storage shed with wood blocks that are in the shape of cubic prisms. Can he build a shed that is twice as high as it is wide?

Complete question is;

Roger is building a storage shed with wood blocks that are in the shape of cubic prisms. Can he build a shed that is twice as high as it is wide?

A. Yes. For every block of width, he could build two blocks high.

B. Yes. He could use half as many blocks for the height as the width.

C. There is no way to determine if he can do this.

D. No, it is not possible to do this

A. Yes. For every block of width, he could build two blocks high.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the wood blocks are in the shape of cubic prisms.

Now, cube shapes means that all sides are equal.

Now, if he divides the cube into 2, he can use one have to add to the top to make the height double since the sides are equal.

Thus, the height will now be twice a side of the cubic prism.

Thus, he can build a shed twice as high as its width.

Given that Roger is building a storage shed with wood blocks that are in the shape of cubic prisms.

cube is basically a box which is made of squares. That is all the sides (length, width, and height) are equal.

Now we have to determine, Can he build a shed that is twice as high as it is wide.

that means if width is 1 then height should be twice which is 2.

yes that is possible if we put one cubical prism over another cubical prism. then height of shed due to two prism will be twice than the width.

Hence correct choice should be "A. Yes. For every block of width, he could build two blocks high."

answer: 1, 3 and 5 are correct
