Answer:

  (4)  5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the length of side x of a right triangular prism with base edge lengths of 2.5 m and 2 m, and a volume of 12.5 m³.

Volume

The volume of the prism is given by the formula ...

  V = Bh

where B is the area of the base:

  B = 1/2bh . . . . where b and h are the leg dimensions of the right triangle

Using these formulas together, we have ...

  V = 1/2(2.5 m)(2 m)x

  12.5 m³ = 2.5x m²

Dividing by 2.5 m², we find x to be ...

  (12.5 m³)/(2.5 m²) = x = 5 m

The dimension labeled x has length 5 meters.
