The bottom layer of the prism could be rectangle.
Prism is a polyhedron comprising an n-sided polygon base, a second base which is a translated copy of the first, and n other faces, necessarily all parallelograms, joining corresponding sides of the two bases.
Volume of prism [tex]= Width*Height*Length[/tex]
We have,
Volume of prism [tex]=120[/tex] cubic units
And,
The height of the prism [tex]=10[/tex] units
Now,
Using the formula mentioned above,
Volume of prism [tex]= Width*Height*Length= Area*Height[/tex]
So,
We can get area of base,
i.e.
[tex]120= Area*10[/tex]
⇒
[tex]Area = 12[/tex] square units
As mentioned in the question ,
It is to be a rectangular prism , so bottom layer is of rectangle.
Hence we can say that the bottom layer of the prism could be rectangle.
