What is the length of the side of a cube whose solidity is 789 cubic feet? Ans. 9-2404 feet. 4. What is the length of the side of a cube whose solidity is 2984 yards? Problem 5. To find (lie solidity of a parallelopipedon. Rule.--Multiply the length by the breadth, and that product again by the depth, or altitude, and it will give the solidity required. 1. Required the solidity of the parallelopipedon A B C D E P G H, whose length A B is 8 feet, its breadth 4-5 feet, and depth or altitude A D, 6-75 feet. Thus, ABxADxPD = 8 X 6 75 X 4-5 = 54 X 4-5 = 243 Parallelop.pedon. solid feet. Ans. 2. What is the solidity of a block of marble whose length is 10 feet, breadth 5-75 feet, and depth 3-5 feet? Ans. 201-25 feet. 3. The length of a parallelopipedon is 36 inches, the width 20 inches, and the depth 18 inches; how many solid feet will it contain? Ans. 7-5 feet. 4. How many bushels are contained in a bin 5-5 feet in length, 4-75 feet in width, and 3-75 in depth? Ans. 78-724 bushels. 5. What is the solidity of a block of marble whose length is 12 feet, breadth 5f, and depth 2J feet? Ans. 172 feet. 6. The length of a parallelopipedon is 15 feet, and each side of its square base 21 inches; what is the solidity? Ans. 45-9375 feet. PROBLEM 6. To find the solidity of a prism. RtTLE.--Multiply the area of the base into the perpendicular height of the prism, and the product will be the solidity. 1. What is the solidity of the triangular prism ABCDE I, whose length A B is 20 feet, and J either of the equal sides B C, C D, or D B of one of its equilateral ends B C D, 5 feet? See Problem 25, Mensuration of Superficies. Thus, the area of the base is 5 X 5 = 25; ...
