Question

Name two lateral edges and an altitude of the following prism?

Short answer

The lateral edges are AP and BQ and an altitude is 5 cm.

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Write the concept.

A prism is a polyhedron that has two equal, parallel sides called “bases” and its lateral sides are “parallelograms”.

A rectangular prism is a polyhedron with two congruent and parallel bases. It has 6 faces and all the faces are in rectangle shape and have 12 edges.

A right rectangular prism is a prism that has 6 faces that are rectangles and all angles are right angles.

An oblique prism in which the bases are not perpendicular to each other.

Step 2. Write explanation.

From the above figure it can be observed that the lateral edges are AP and BQ and an altitude is 5cm.
