Step-by-step solution for: Volume online worksheet
To find the volume of these L-shaped blocks, we can split each shape into two separate rectangular boxes (prisms). Then, we calculate the volume of each box and add them together.
Formula for Volume: $\text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Height}$
Here is the step-by-step solution for each problem:
1)
* Split it: Vertical part ($4\text{ mm wide} \times 2\text{ mm deep} \times 10\text{ mm high}$) + Horizontal part ($8\text{ mm long} \times 2\text{ mm deep} \times 3\text{ mm high}$).
* *Note: The total width is $12$, vertical width is $2$ (implied by symmetry or subtraction if top width was given, but here bottom is $12$ and horizontal arm is $8$, so vertical arm width is $12 - 8 = 4$).*
* Calculate:
* Vertical: $4 \times 2 \times 10 = 80\text{ mm}^3$
* Horizontal: $8 \times 2 \times 3 = 48\text{ mm}^3$
* Total: $80 + 48 = 128\text{ mm}^3$
2)
* Split it: Bottom block ($8\text{ ft} \times 5\text{ ft} \times 4\text{ ft}$) + Top block ($4\text{ ft wide} \times 5\text{ ft deep} \times 12\text{ ft high}$).
* *Note: Total height is $16$, bottom height is $4$, so top height is $12$. Width of top is $4$.*
* Calculate:
* Bottom: $8 \times 5 \times 4 = 160\text{ ft}^3$
* Top: $4 \times 5 \times 12 = 240\text{ ft}^3$
* Total: $160 + 240 = 400\text{ ft}^3$
3)
* Split it: Back wall ($9\text{ cm} \times 3\text{ cm} \times 1\text{ cm}$) + Side wing ($5\text{ cm long} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times 1\text{ cm high}$... wait, let's look closer).
* Let's split vertically. Left tall part: $1\text{ cm wide} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times (\text{height?})$. The diagram shows a height of $1\text{ cm}$ on the right lip and $1\text{ cm}$ on the top left lip. It looks like a flat tray.
* Let's assume the "L" is in the profile. Base: $9\text{ cm} \times 5\text{ cm} \times 1\text{ cm}$? No, the labels are tricky.
* Let's try splitting into a back rectangle and a side rectangle.
* Back piece: $9\text{ cm long} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times 1\text{ cm high}$. Volume = $27$.
* Front/Side piece sticking out: The total depth is $5\text{ cm}$. The back piece takes $3\text{ cm}$. So the front piece is $2\text{ cm}$ deep. Its length is not fully clear, but usually, these are uniform. Let's look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the top left. That's likely the thickness of the vertical wall.
* Let's re-read the shape. It looks like an L-profile extruded.
* Profile Area method:
* Vertical leg: $1\text{ cm thick}$. Height isn't explicitly labeled as total, but the right side has a $1\text{ cm}$ lip. Let's assume the vertical part is taller. Actually, looking at #3, it looks like a shallow pan.
* Let's assume standard L-block orientation.
* Part A (Long base): $9\text{ cm} \times 5\text{ cm} \times 1\text{ cm}$? No, the $1\text{ cm}$ is on the vertical edge.
* Let's split into two prisms:
1. Left vertical tower: $1\text{ cm wide} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times H$. Wait, the $3\text{ cm}$ is the depth of the left side. The $5\text{ cm}$ is the depth of the right side. This implies the shape changes depth.
2. Let's try this split:
* Block 1 (Left): $1\text{ cm (width)} \times 3\text{ cm (depth)} \times \text{Height}$. The height isn't given for the left side, only the right side lip is $1\text{ cm}$.
* Actually, usually in these problems, if a dimension is missing, it might be uniform. Let's look at the "$1\text{ cm}$" on the top left edge. That is the width of the vertical stem. The "$1\text{ cm}$" on the right is the height of the horizontal stem.
* What is the total height? It's not labeled. However, often the left vertical part corresponds to the depth of the other side? No.
* Let's look at the labels again. Left depth: $3\text{ cm}$. Right depth: $5\text{ cm}$. Length: $9\text{ cm}$. Top width: $1\text{ cm}$. Right height: $1\text{ cm}$.
* This shape is ambiguous without a total height. However, looking at similar problems, sometimes the "L" is lying down.
* Let's assume the vertical part on the left has the same height as the length? No.
* Let's assume the vertical part on the left has a height that makes it a square profile? No.
* Let's look at the label placement. The $1\text{ cm}$ is on the short edge of the top face. The $3\text{ cm}$ is the depth of the left section. The $5\text{ cm}$ is the depth of the right section. The $9\text{ cm}$ is the total length. The $1\text{ cm}$ on the right is the height.
* Is it possible the left vertical part is just $1\text{ cm}$ high too? If so, it's a flat plate with a cutout. Volume = $(9 \times 5 \times 1) - (\text{cutout})$. Cutout would be $(8 \times 2 \times 1)$?
* Let's try another interpretation: The left part is a vertical wall. The height is missing. Wait, look at the perspective. The $3\text{ cm}$ and $5\text{ cm}$ are depths. The $1\text{ cm}$ on the left is the thickness of the wall. The $1\text{ cm}$ on the right is the height of the floor.
* Is there a missing label? Or is the height of the left wall equal to something else? In many such worksheets, if the height isn't listed, it might be equal to the depth or length, but that's a guess.
* Let's look really closely at crop 3. There is a label "$1\text{ cm}$" pointing to the vertical edge of the left block. There is a label "$1\text{ cm}$" pointing to the vertical edge of the right block. This suggests the total height of the left block is not $1$, but the thickness is $1$.
* Actually, looking at the line for the left height... it's not labeled. BUT, looking at the right side, the height is $1\text{ cm}$. Looking at the top left, the width is $1\text{ cm}$.
* Let's assume the "L" is formed by a $9\times3\times H$ block and a remaining block.
* Let's try a different split. Maybe the height of the left part is determined by the other dimensions? No.
* Let's look at Problem 6. It has similar labeling. Left height $16$, top width $2$, bottom width $8$, right height $2$, middle width $3$.
* Back to Problem 3. Is it possible the height of the left part is $3\text{ cm}$? (Matching the depth?) Or $5\text{ cm}$?
* Let's look at the visual proportions. The left vertical part looks taller than the right part.
* Let's reconsider the labels. Maybe the "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left IS the height? If the left height is $1\text{ cm}$ and the right height is $1\text{ cm}$, then it's a flat slab of $9 \times 5 \times 1$ with a chunk missing?
* Chunk missing: The "step" goes from depth $3$ to $5$. So the missing part is on the right? No, the left is depth $3$, right is depth $5$. This means the left side is narrower.
* If it's a single slab of height $1$: Volume = $9 \times 5 \times 1 = 45$. But there's a cut. The left part is depth $3$. The right part is depth $5$. This implies the shape is composed of two rectangles joined.
* Rectangle 1 (Left): $1\text{ cm wide} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times 1\text{ cm high}$. Vol = $3$.
* Rectangle 2 (Right): $8\text{ cm long} \times 5\text{ cm deep} \times 1\text{ cm high}$. Vol = $40$.
* Total = $43$?
* Alternative Interpretation: The left part is a vertical wall standing up. The label "$1\text{ cm}$" is the thickness. The height is missing. However, in some contexts, if a dimension is omitted, it might be the same as another. But that's risky.
* Let's look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the top left corner again. It marks the width. The label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the far right marks the height.
* Is it possible the height of the left part is $3\text{ cm}$ (same as its depth)? If Height=$3$:
* Left Block: $1 \times 3 \times 3 = 9$.
* Right Block (attached to side): Length $8$ ($9-1$), Depth $5$, Height $1$. Vol = $8 \times 5 \times 1 = 40$.
* Total = $49$.
* Let's try Height = $5\text{ cm}$ (same as max depth)?
* Left Block: $1 \times 3 \times 5 = 15$.
* Right Block: $8 \times 5 \times 1 = 40$.
* Total = $55$.
* Let's look at the image source style. Usually, all necessary numbers are present. Did I miss a number?
* Ah, look at the leftmost vertical edge. There is no number.
* Look at the top horizontal edge of the left part. It says "$1\text{ cm}$".
* Look at the rightmost vertical edge. It says "$1\text{ cm}$".
* Look at the depth of the left part: "$3\text{ cm}$".
* Look at the depth of the right part: "$5\text{ cm}$".
* Look at the total length: "$9\text{ cm}$".
* There is genuinely a missing height for the left tower. UNLESS the shape is lying on its side?
* If we rotate it 90 degrees: The "height" becomes the length.
* Let's assume the standard convention where the vertical lines represent height.
* Let's look at Problem 1. Height $10$, Width $12$, etc. All dims present.
* Problem 3 is the only one with a potentially missing dim.
* Wait! Look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left. It is placed on the vertical edge of the small top surface. And there is another "$1\text{ cm}$" on the horizontal edge of that same small top surface? No, the leader line for the left "$1\text{ cm}$" points to the short edge of the top face (the width). The leader line for the right "$1\text{ cm}$" points to the vertical edge (the height).
* Is it possible the left vertical part's height is $3\text{ cm}$? In isometric drawings, sometimes parallel edges are equal. The vertical edge of the left part looks roughly the same length as the depth edge labeled $3\text{ cm}$. Let's proceed with Height = $3\text{ cm}$ for the left part as the most logical geometric inference if a label is dropped, or perhaps the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left was meant to be height? No, it clearly marks width.
* Actually, let's look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left again. It's on the top face. It defines the thickness of the vertical leg.
* Let's look at the label "$3\text{ cm}$". It defines the depth of the vertical leg.
* Let's look at the label "$5\text{ cm}$". It defines the depth of the horizontal leg.
* Let's look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the right. It defines the height of the horizontal leg.
* The height of the vertical leg is the only thing missing.
* Let's check if the text "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left could refer to height? The line touches the corner. It's ambiguous. But usually, width/depth are on the faces, height is on the vertical edge. The right side has a vertical edge labeled $1\text{ cm}$. The left side has a vertical edge that is NOT labeled.
* However, if we assume the object is made of unit cubes or has integer symmetry...
* Let's try calculating with Height = $3\text{ cm}$.
* Split into vertical column and horizontal row.
* Column: $1\text{ (w)} \times 3\text{ (d)} \times 3\text{ (h)} = 9\text{ cm}^3$.
* Row (remaining part): Length $8\text{ (9-1)} \times 5\text{ (d)} \times 1\text{ (h)} = 40\text{ cm}^3$.
* Total: $49\text{ cm}^3$.
* Let's try calculating with Height = $5\text{ cm}$.
* Column: $1 \times 3 \times 5 = 15$.
* Row: $8 \times 5 \times 1 = 40$.
* Total: $55\text{ cm}^3$.
* Let's try calculating with Height = $4\text{ cm}$? No reason.
* Let's look at the visual aspect ratio. The left vertical edge looks longer than the right vertical edge ($1\text{ cm}$). It looks comparable to the depth ($3\text{ cm}$ or $5\text{ cm}$). It looks shorter than the length ($9\text{ cm}$).
* Between $3$ and $5$, $3$ seems visually more accurate relative to the depth line next to it.
* Alternative Idea: Is the "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left actually the height? If the left block is $1\text{ cm}$ high, and the right block is $1\text{ cm}$ high, then it's a flat shape.
* Left part: $1\text{ w} \times 3\text{ d} \times 1\text{ h} = 3$.
* Right part: $8\text{ l} \times 5\text{ d} \times 1\text{ h} = 40$.
* Total: $43$.
* Why would they draw it tall if it's flat? They wouldn't. The drawing clearly shows a tall left side.
* Therefore, the height is missing. In standardized tests, if a dimension is missing, check if it can be derived. Can it? No.
* Is there a typo in my reading?
* Left side: Top width $1\text{ cm}$. Depth $3\text{ cm}$.
* Right side: Depth $5\text{ cm}$. Height $1\text{ cm}$. Length $9\text{ cm}$.
* Maybe the total height is $3\text{ cm}$? If total height is $3$, and the right side is $1$, then the left side sticks up $2$ more? No, the left side is the full height.
* Let's assume the height of the left part is $3\text{ cm}$ based on the adjacent depth label being the only plausible candidate for a missing integer dimension in this specific geometry context (often depth=height in simple L-brackets unless specified).
* *Self-Correction*: I will provide the answer based on the most likely intended dimension, which is often that the vertical leg height equals the longer depth or is explicitly labeled. Wait, looking at Problem 6, the heights are explicit. Problem 3 is likely flawed or I am blind.
* Let's look at the "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left again. The arrow points to the vertical edge? No, it points to the top edge.
* Okay, I will bet on Height = $3\text{ cm}$ for the left part, making the volume $49\text{ cm}^3$.
* *Another possibility*: The label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left is for the height, and the width is implied to be something else? No, the width is clearly the short side.
* Let's try one more calculation: What if the left part is $1\text{ cm}$ wide, $3\text{ cm}$ deep, and $5\text{ cm}$ high (matching the max depth)?
* Let's stick with the visual cue. The left vertical edge looks about the same length as the depth edge labeled $3$.
* Decision: I will use Height=$3$ for the left block.
* Vol = $(1 \times 3 \times 3) + (8 \times 5 \times 1) = 9 + 40 = 49\text{ cm}^3$.
*(Note: If the height was intended to be $5$, the answer would be $55$. If the height was intended to be $4$, it would be $52$. Without the label, this is an estimate. However, looking at the provided solution key for similar online worksheets, often the "missing" height matches the depth of that specific segment. So $3\text{ cm}$ is the strongest guess.)*
4)
* Split it: Left block ($10\text{ in} \times 3\text{ in} \times ?$) + Right block.
* Labels: Total width $10+?$ No, bottom is $10\text{ in}$ for the left part? No, the label $10\text{ in}$ is under the left part. The label $12\text{ in}$ is under the right part.
* So, Left Width = $10$, Right Width = $12$.
* Depths: Left Depth = $3\text{ in}$ (top label). Right Depth = $4\text{ in}$ (side label).
* Heights: Left Height = $5\text{ in}$ (side label). Right Height = ?
* Wait, the label "$5\text{ in}$" is on the vertical edge of the LEFT part.
* The label "$4\text{ in}$" is on the vertical edge of the RIGHT part? No, it's on the depth edge.
* Let's re-read carefully.
* Left Block: Width $10$, Depth $3$, Height $5$.
* Right Block: Width $12$, Depth $4$, Height $?$.
* The drawing shows the right block is lower. Is the height given?
* There is no height label for the right block.
* However, usually in these "L" shapes, the blocks are flush at the bottom.
* Is there a shared dimension?
* Maybe the "$5\text{ in}$" applies to the total height? And the right part is shorter?
* Or maybe the right part's height is half?
* Let's look at the label positions again.
* Left side: Top depth $3$, Side height $5$, Bottom width $10$.
* Right side: Bottom width $12$, Side depth $4$.
* Missing: Height of the right block.
* Visual check: The right block looks about half the height of the left block? Or maybe the height is $4\text{ in}$ (matching its depth)?
* Let's assume Height of right block = $4\text{ in}$.
* Left Vol: $10 \times 3 \times 5 = 150\text{ in}^3$.
* Right Vol: $12 \times 4 \times 4 = 192\text{ in}^3$.
* Total: $342\text{ in}^3$.
* Alternative: Maybe the right height is $5\text{ in}$ too? No, it's drawn shorter.
* Alternative: Maybe the label "$5\text{ in}$" is the TOTAL height, and the right part is... still unknown.
* Let's look at Problem 4 again. Is the "$5\text{ in}$" label for the left height or the right? It's next to the left block's vertical edge.
* Is it possible the shape is one single block with a cut?
* Total Width = $10 + 12 = 22$? No, they are joined.
* Let's assume the right height is $4\text{ in}$ (symmetry with depth).
* Answer: $342\text{ in}^3$.
*(Self-Correction on 3 and 4: These diagrams have ambiguous/missing labels. I will provide the most logical mathematical deduction based on standard worksheet patterns where missing vertical dimensions often match the adjacent horizontal/depth dimension if not specified, or imply a simpler relationship. For #3, Height=3. For #4, Right Height=4.)*
5)
* Split it: Left vertical tower + Right horizontal arm.
* Left Tower: Width $5\text{ m}$, Depth $2\text{ m}$ (from the inner corner label? No, the label $2\text{ m}$ is the thickness of the horizontal arm).
* Let's identify dims:
* Total Height: $11\text{ m}$.
* Total Width: $15\text{ m}$.
* Left Width: $5\text{ m}$.
* Right Arm Height/Thickness: $4\text{ m}$? No, label $4\text{ m}$ is on the right end height.
* Inner corner labels: $2\text{ m}$ is the height of the step? Or thickness?
* Let's trace the perimeter.
* Left side height: $11\text{ m}$.
* Bottom left width: $5\text{ m}$.
* Top total width: $15\text{ m}$.
* Right end height: $4\text{ m}$.
* Inner vertical drop: Label $2\text{ m}$? No, the label $2\text{ m}$ is near the inner corner. It likely indicates the thickness of the vertical wall or the horizontal floor.
* Let's assume the standard "two rectangle" split.
* Rectangle 1 (Left Vertical): Width $5\text{ m}$. Height $11\text{ m}$. Depth? The depth is not explicitly labeled on the outside. Wait, look at the inner corner. There is a "$2\text{ m}$" and a "$4\text{ m}$".
* The "$4\text{ m}$" is the height of the right arm.
* The "$2\text{ m}$" is likely the depth of the entire object? Or the width of the connection?
* Usually, depth is uniform. Let's assume Depth = $2\text{ m}$ (based on the label near the corner).
* So, Depth = $2\text{ m}$.
* Now, split vertically:
* Left Part: Width $5\text{ m}$, Height $11\text{ m}$, Depth $2\text{ m}$. Vol = $5 \times 11 \times 2 = 110\text{ m}^3$.
* Right Part: Total width $15$, so Right Width = $15 - 5 = 10\text{ m}$. Height = $4\text{ m}$. Depth = $2\text{ m}$. Vol = $10 \times 4 \times 2 = 80\text{ m}^3$.
* Total: $110 + 80 = 190\text{ m}^3$.
6)
* Split it: Left vertical tower + Right horizontal base.
* Dims:
* Total Height: $16\text{ cm}$.
* Total Width: $8\text{ cm}$.
* Top Width: $2\text{ cm}$.
* Right Height: $2\text{ cm}$.
* Inner Width: $3\text{ cm}$? The label $3\text{ cm}$ is on the horizontal surface of the right arm. This indicates the length of the right arm is $3\text{ cm}$? Or the remaining width?
* Let's check widths: Total $8$. Top (left) width $2$. So the right arm starts at $x=2$.
* The label $3\text{ cm}$ is on the top of the right arm. This usually means the length of that segment is $3$.
* If Right Arm Length = $3$, then there is a gap? $2 (\text{left}) + 3 (\text{right}) = 5$. Total is $8$. Where is the other $3$?
* Maybe the label $3\text{ cm}$ is the inner width of the vertical part? No.
* Maybe the label $3\text{ cm}$ is the depth?
* Let's look at the depth labels. There are none on the "front" faces.
* Wait, the label $2\text{ cm}$ on the right is height. The label $2\text{ cm}$ on the top is width.
* The label $3\text{ cm}$ is on the horizontal shelf.
* The label $8\text{ cm}$ is the total width.
* The label $16\text{ cm}$ is the total height.
* We need the Depth. Is the depth uniform?
* Often in these 2D-looking profiles, the depth is given by one label. Here, no explicit depth label like "depth = x".
* However, look at the label $3\text{ cm}$. It is along the receding axis? No, it's along the horizontal axis.
* Look at the label $2\text{ cm}$ on the top. It is along the receding axis? No, it's the short width.
* Is it possible the Depth is $3\text{ cm}$? The label $3\text{ cm}$ is placed on the face that represents the depth in some orientations? No, it's clearly on the width.
* Let's assume the Depth is $2\text{ cm}$ (matching the top width? Unlikely).
* Let's look at the label $3\text{ cm}$ again. It's on the horizontal part.
* Let's look at the label $8\text{ cm}$.
* Let's assume the Depth is $3\text{ cm}$? If the label $3\text{ cm}$ was meant to be depth, it's placed weirdly.
* Actually, look at the perspective. The $3\text{ cm}$ label is parallel to the $8\text{ cm}$ label. So it's a width/length dimension.
* The $2\text{ cm}$ label on top is parallel to the depth axis? Yes! The top-left label $2\text{ cm}$ is along the side going "back". So Depth = $2\text{ cm}$.
* Okay, Depth = $2\text{ cm}$.
* Now, widths:
* Left Width = $2\text{ cm}$ (from top label? No, the top label $2\text{ cm}$ is depth).
* We need the Left Width. Total Width = $8$.
* We have a label $3\text{ cm}$ on the right arm. Does this mean the Right Arm Width is $3$? Or the Left Width is $3$?
* The label $3\text{ cm}$ is on the right arm. So Right Arm Width = $3\text{ cm}$?
* If Right Arm Width = $3$, and Total = $8$, then Left Width = $5$.
* Let's check the top label again. The top label $2\text{ cm}$ is on the left block's top face, along the depth edge. So Depth = $2$.
* Is there a width label for the left block? No.
* Is there a width label for the right block? Yes, $3\text{ cm}$.
* So, Left Width = $8 - 3 = 5\text{ cm}$.
* Heights:
* Total Height = $16\text{ cm}$.
* Right Arm Height = $2\text{ cm}$.
* Left Block Height = $16\text{ cm}$.
* Calculation:
* Left Block: Width $5$, Depth $2$, Height $16$. Vol = $5 \times 2 \times 16 = 160\text{ cm}^3$.
* Right Block: Width $3$, Depth $2$, Height $2$. Vol = $3 \times 2 \times 2 = 12\text{ cm}^3$.
* Total: $160 + 12 = 172\text{ cm}^3$.
7)
* Split it: Left block + Right block.
* Dims:
* Left Height: $5\text{ ft}$.
* Left Width: $3\text{ ft}$.
* Right Length: $7\text{ ft}$? No, label $7\text{ ft}$ is the total length of the bottom? Or the right part? The line extends under the right part. Let's assume Right Part Length = $7\text{ ft}$.
* Top Length: $6\text{ ft}$. This is the length of the left part? Or the right part? The label $6\text{ ft}$ is on the top of the right-ish part? No, it's on the top of the left part?
* Let's trace:
* Left block is tall. Right block is long/low.
* Label $5\text{ ft}$: Height of left block.
* Label $3\text{ ft}$: Width of left block.
* Label $2\text{ ft}$: Depth (top right label).
* Label $6\text{ ft}$: Length of the top surface of the RIGHT block? Or the LEFT? The line is over the right block. So Right Block Length = $6\text{ ft}$.
* Label $7\text{ ft}$: Length of the bottom of the RIGHT block?
* This is contradictory. Top $6$, Bottom $7$? That would mean it's a trapezoid, not a rect prism.
* Re-examine: The label $6\text{ ft}$ is on the top edge of the Left block? No, the left block is narrow ($3\text{ ft}$). The $6\text{ ft}$ label spans the longer section.
* The label $7\text{ ft}$ spans the same section at the bottom.
* This implies the length is $6$ on top and $7$ on bottom? Impossible for rectangular blocks.
* Alternative: The label $6\text{ ft}$ is the Total Length? And $7\text{ ft}$ is something else?
* Let's look at the lines.
* Line for $6\text{ ft}$: Starts at the inner corner, ends at the right edge. So Right Block Length = $6\text{ ft}$.
* Line for $7\text{ ft}$: Starts at the left edge of the RIGHT block? Or the left edge of the WHOLE shape?
* The line for $7\text{ ft}$ seems to start at the left edge of the right block and go to the right edge.
* So we have Length = $6$ and Length = $7$ for the same block?
* Maybe the $7\text{ ft}$ is the Total Length of the whole L-shape?
* If Total Length = $7$, and Left Width = $3$, then Right Block Length = $7 - 3 = 4\text{ ft}$.
* Then what is $6\text{ ft}$? Maybe the Right Block Length is $6$?
* If Right Block Length = $6$, and Left Width = $3$, Total = $9$.
* Let's look at the label $6\text{ ft}$ again. It is on the top.
* Let's look at the label $7\text{ ft}$ again. It is on the bottom.
* Maybe the Left Block Width is NOT $3$? The label $3\text{ ft}$ is on the front face width.
* Maybe the shape is tapered? No, "Volume of L-Blocks" implies prisms.
* Most likely interpretation:
* Depth = $2\text{ ft}$ (from top right label).
* Left Block: Width $3\text{ ft}$, Height $5\text{ ft}$.
* Right Block: Height? Not labeled. Assume same as depth? Or half of left?
* Let's look for a height label on the right. None.
* Let's look for a length label.
* If $6\text{ ft}$ is the length of the right block, and $7\text{ ft}$ is the total length... then Left Width = $7 - 6 = 1\text{ ft}$. But Left Width is labeled $3\text{ ft}$. Contradiction.
* If $7\text{ ft}$ is the length of the right block, and $6\text{ ft}$ is... ?
* Let's assume the label $6\text{ ft}$ is the Total Length.
* If Total Length = $6$, and Left Width = $3$, then Right Block Length = $3$.
* Then what is $7\text{ ft}$? Maybe the label is $1\text{ ft}$? No, looks like $7$.
* Maybe the label $3\text{ ft}$ is the height of the right block? No, it's on the front vertical edge of the left block? No, it's on the bottom front edge.
* Let's try: Left Width = $3$. Right Length = $7$ (bottom label). Total Length = $10$.
* Then what is $6\text{ ft}$? Maybe the Right Block Height? No, it's horizontal.
* Maybe the Right Block Height is $2\text{ ft}$ (matching depth)?
* And the Right Block Length is $6\text{ ft}$ (top label).
* And the Total Length is $7\text{ ft}$?
* If Total = $7$ and Right = $6$, then Left Width = $1$. But Left Width is labeled $3$.
* There is a serious contradiction in the labels for #7.
* Let's look at the label $3\text{ ft}$ again. It is on the side of the left block. It could be the Depth?
* If Depth = $3\text{ ft}$.
* Then the label $2\text{ ft}$ on the top right is... Width?
* If Right Width = $2\text{ ft}$.
* And Right Length = $6\text{ ft}$?
* And Left Height = $5\text{ ft}$.
* And Total Length = $7\text{ ft}$.
* If Total Length = $7$ and Right Length = $6$? No, lengths are along the same axis.
* Let's assume the axis along the bottom is Length.
* Label $7\text{ ft}$ is Total Length.
* Label $3\text{ ft}$ is Left Width.
* Therefore, Right Length = $7 - 3 = 4\text{ ft}$.
* Label $6\text{ ft}$ is on the top. Maybe it's the Left Length? No, left is width $3$.
* Maybe the label $6\text{ ft}$ is the Right Length and the label $7\text{ ft}$ is a mistake or refers to something else?
* Or maybe the label $3\text{ ft}$ is the Right Height?
* Let's try this:
* Depth = $2\text{ ft}$ (top right).
* Left Block: Height $5$, Width $3$ (front label).
* Right Block: Length $6$ (top label). Height $2$ (assumed from depth?).
* If Right Length = $6$, and Left Width = $3$, Total = $9$.
* The label $7\text{ ft}$ is the outlier.
* Let's try ignoring the $7$.
* Left Vol: $3 \times 2 \times 5 = 30$.
* Right Vol: $6 \times 2 \times 2 = 24$. (Assuming height=2).
* Total: $54$.
* Let's try ignoring the $6$.
* Right Length = $7 - 3 = 4$.
* Right Vol: $4 \times 2 \times 2 = 16$.
* Left Vol: $30$.
* Total: $46$.
* Given the ambiguity, $46\text{ ft}^3$ (using the bottom total length) is a safer bet for "Total Length" labels usually overriding internal ones if there's a conflict, OR $54\text{ ft}^3$ if the top label is more precise.
* However, look at the label $2\text{ ft}$ on the top right. It is on the short edge. That is Depth.
* Look at the label $3\text{ ft}$ on the bottom left. That is Width.
* Look at the label $5\text{ ft}$ on the left. That is Height.
* Look at the label $6\text{ ft}$ on the top right. That is Length of the right arm.
* Look at the label $7\text{ ft}$ on the bottom right. That is Length of the right arm.
* Why two labels for the same thing? $6$ and $7$?
* Maybe the $7\text{ ft}$ is the Total Length and the $3\text{ ft}$ is the Left Width.
* If Total = $7$ and Left = $3$, Right = $4$.
* Then the $6\text{ ft}$ label is wrong or I'm misinterpreting it.
* Actually, the $6\text{ ft}$ label might be for the Left Block's Length if the shape is rotated? No.
* I will go with Total Length = $7$, Left Width = $3$, so Right Length = $4$.
* Height of Right Block: Not labeled. Assume $2\text{ ft}$ (same as depth, common in these puzzles).
* Left Vol: $3 \times 2 \times 5 = 30$.
* Right Vol: $4 \times 2 \times 2 = 16$.
* Total: $46\text{ ft}^3$.
8)
* Split it: Two slanted blocks? No, they are rectangular prisms, just drawn in perspective.
* Dims:
* Left Block: Length $12\text{ in}$, Width $6\text{ in}$, Height $2\text{ in}$?
* Right
Formula for Volume: $\text{Length} \times \text{Width} \times \text{Height}$
Here is the step-by-step solution for each problem:
1)
* Split it: Vertical part ($4\text{ mm wide} \times 2\text{ mm deep} \times 10\text{ mm high}$) + Horizontal part ($8\text{ mm long} \times 2\text{ mm deep} \times 3\text{ mm high}$).
* *Note: The total width is $12$, vertical width is $2$ (implied by symmetry or subtraction if top width was given, but here bottom is $12$ and horizontal arm is $8$, so vertical arm width is $12 - 8 = 4$).*
* Calculate:
* Vertical: $4 \times 2 \times 10 = 80\text{ mm}^3$
* Horizontal: $8 \times 2 \times 3 = 48\text{ mm}^3$
* Total: $80 + 48 = 128\text{ mm}^3$
2)
* Split it: Bottom block ($8\text{ ft} \times 5\text{ ft} \times 4\text{ ft}$) + Top block ($4\text{ ft wide} \times 5\text{ ft deep} \times 12\text{ ft high}$).
* *Note: Total height is $16$, bottom height is $4$, so top height is $12$. Width of top is $4$.*
* Calculate:
* Bottom: $8 \times 5 \times 4 = 160\text{ ft}^3$
* Top: $4 \times 5 \times 12 = 240\text{ ft}^3$
* Total: $160 + 240 = 400\text{ ft}^3$
3)
* Split it: Back wall ($9\text{ cm} \times 3\text{ cm} \times 1\text{ cm}$) + Side wing ($5\text{ cm long} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times 1\text{ cm high}$... wait, let's look closer).
* Let's split vertically. Left tall part: $1\text{ cm wide} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times (\text{height?})$. The diagram shows a height of $1\text{ cm}$ on the right lip and $1\text{ cm}$ on the top left lip. It looks like a flat tray.
* Let's assume the "L" is in the profile. Base: $9\text{ cm} \times 5\text{ cm} \times 1\text{ cm}$? No, the labels are tricky.
* Let's try splitting into a back rectangle and a side rectangle.
* Back piece: $9\text{ cm long} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times 1\text{ cm high}$. Volume = $27$.
* Front/Side piece sticking out: The total depth is $5\text{ cm}$. The back piece takes $3\text{ cm}$. So the front piece is $2\text{ cm}$ deep. Its length is not fully clear, but usually, these are uniform. Let's look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the top left. That's likely the thickness of the vertical wall.
* Let's re-read the shape. It looks like an L-profile extruded.
* Profile Area method:
* Vertical leg: $1\text{ cm thick}$. Height isn't explicitly labeled as total, but the right side has a $1\text{ cm}$ lip. Let's assume the vertical part is taller. Actually, looking at #3, it looks like a shallow pan.
* Let's assume standard L-block orientation.
* Part A (Long base): $9\text{ cm} \times 5\text{ cm} \times 1\text{ cm}$? No, the $1\text{ cm}$ is on the vertical edge.
* Let's split into two prisms:
1. Left vertical tower: $1\text{ cm wide} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times H$. Wait, the $3\text{ cm}$ is the depth of the left side. The $5\text{ cm}$ is the depth of the right side. This implies the shape changes depth.
2. Let's try this split:
* Block 1 (Left): $1\text{ cm (width)} \times 3\text{ cm (depth)} \times \text{Height}$. The height isn't given for the left side, only the right side lip is $1\text{ cm}$.
* Actually, usually in these problems, if a dimension is missing, it might be uniform. Let's look at the "$1\text{ cm}$" on the top left edge. That is the width of the vertical stem. The "$1\text{ cm}$" on the right is the height of the horizontal stem.
* What is the total height? It's not labeled. However, often the left vertical part corresponds to the depth of the other side? No.
* Let's look at the labels again. Left depth: $3\text{ cm}$. Right depth: $5\text{ cm}$. Length: $9\text{ cm}$. Top width: $1\text{ cm}$. Right height: $1\text{ cm}$.
* This shape is ambiguous without a total height. However, looking at similar problems, sometimes the "L" is lying down.
* Let's assume the vertical part on the left has the same height as the length? No.
* Let's assume the vertical part on the left has a height that makes it a square profile? No.
* Let's look at the label placement. The $1\text{ cm}$ is on the short edge of the top face. The $3\text{ cm}$ is the depth of the left section. The $5\text{ cm}$ is the depth of the right section. The $9\text{ cm}$ is the total length. The $1\text{ cm}$ on the right is the height.
* Is it possible the left vertical part is just $1\text{ cm}$ high too? If so, it's a flat plate with a cutout. Volume = $(9 \times 5 \times 1) - (\text{cutout})$. Cutout would be $(8 \times 2 \times 1)$?
* Let's try another interpretation: The left part is a vertical wall. The height is missing. Wait, look at the perspective. The $3\text{ cm}$ and $5\text{ cm}$ are depths. The $1\text{ cm}$ on the left is the thickness of the wall. The $1\text{ cm}$ on the right is the height of the floor.
* Is there a missing label? Or is the height of the left wall equal to something else? In many such worksheets, if the height isn't listed, it might be equal to the depth or length, but that's a guess.
* Let's look really closely at crop 3. There is a label "$1\text{ cm}$" pointing to the vertical edge of the left block. There is a label "$1\text{ cm}$" pointing to the vertical edge of the right block. This suggests the total height of the left block is not $1$, but the thickness is $1$.
* Actually, looking at the line for the left height... it's not labeled. BUT, looking at the right side, the height is $1\text{ cm}$. Looking at the top left, the width is $1\text{ cm}$.
* Let's assume the "L" is formed by a $9\times3\times H$ block and a remaining block.
* Let's try a different split. Maybe the height of the left part is determined by the other dimensions? No.
* Let's look at Problem 6. It has similar labeling. Left height $16$, top width $2$, bottom width $8$, right height $2$, middle width $3$.
* Back to Problem 3. Is it possible the height of the left part is $3\text{ cm}$? (Matching the depth?) Or $5\text{ cm}$?
* Let's look at the visual proportions. The left vertical part looks taller than the right part.
* Let's reconsider the labels. Maybe the "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left IS the height? If the left height is $1\text{ cm}$ and the right height is $1\text{ cm}$, then it's a flat slab of $9 \times 5 \times 1$ with a chunk missing?
* Chunk missing: The "step" goes from depth $3$ to $5$. So the missing part is on the right? No, the left is depth $3$, right is depth $5$. This means the left side is narrower.
* If it's a single slab of height $1$: Volume = $9 \times 5 \times 1 = 45$. But there's a cut. The left part is depth $3$. The right part is depth $5$. This implies the shape is composed of two rectangles joined.
* Rectangle 1 (Left): $1\text{ cm wide} \times 3\text{ cm deep} \times 1\text{ cm high}$. Vol = $3$.
* Rectangle 2 (Right): $8\text{ cm long} \times 5\text{ cm deep} \times 1\text{ cm high}$. Vol = $40$.
* Total = $43$?
* Alternative Interpretation: The left part is a vertical wall standing up. The label "$1\text{ cm}$" is the thickness. The height is missing. However, in some contexts, if a dimension is omitted, it might be the same as another. But that's risky.
* Let's look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the top left corner again. It marks the width. The label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the far right marks the height.
* Is it possible the height of the left part is $3\text{ cm}$ (same as its depth)? If Height=$3$:
* Left Block: $1 \times 3 \times 3 = 9$.
* Right Block (attached to side): Length $8$ ($9-1$), Depth $5$, Height $1$. Vol = $8 \times 5 \times 1 = 40$.
* Total = $49$.
* Let's try Height = $5\text{ cm}$ (same as max depth)?
* Left Block: $1 \times 3 \times 5 = 15$.
* Right Block: $8 \times 5 \times 1 = 40$.
* Total = $55$.
* Let's look at the image source style. Usually, all necessary numbers are present. Did I miss a number?
* Ah, look at the leftmost vertical edge. There is no number.
* Look at the top horizontal edge of the left part. It says "$1\text{ cm}$".
* Look at the rightmost vertical edge. It says "$1\text{ cm}$".
* Look at the depth of the left part: "$3\text{ cm}$".
* Look at the depth of the right part: "$5\text{ cm}$".
* Look at the total length: "$9\text{ cm}$".
* There is genuinely a missing height for the left tower. UNLESS the shape is lying on its side?
* If we rotate it 90 degrees: The "height" becomes the length.
* Let's assume the standard convention where the vertical lines represent height.
* Let's look at Problem 1. Height $10$, Width $12$, etc. All dims present.
* Problem 3 is the only one with a potentially missing dim.
* Wait! Look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left. It is placed on the vertical edge of the small top surface. And there is another "$1\text{ cm}$" on the horizontal edge of that same small top surface? No, the leader line for the left "$1\text{ cm}$" points to the short edge of the top face (the width). The leader line for the right "$1\text{ cm}$" points to the vertical edge (the height).
* Is it possible the left vertical part's height is $3\text{ cm}$? In isometric drawings, sometimes parallel edges are equal. The vertical edge of the left part looks roughly the same length as the depth edge labeled $3\text{ cm}$. Let's proceed with Height = $3\text{ cm}$ for the left part as the most logical geometric inference if a label is dropped, or perhaps the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left was meant to be height? No, it clearly marks width.
* Actually, let's look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left again. It's on the top face. It defines the thickness of the vertical leg.
* Let's look at the label "$3\text{ cm}$". It defines the depth of the vertical leg.
* Let's look at the label "$5\text{ cm}$". It defines the depth of the horizontal leg.
* Let's look at the label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the right. It defines the height of the horizontal leg.
* The height of the vertical leg is the only thing missing.
* Let's check if the text "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left could refer to height? The line touches the corner. It's ambiguous. But usually, width/depth are on the faces, height is on the vertical edge. The right side has a vertical edge labeled $1\text{ cm}$. The left side has a vertical edge that is NOT labeled.
* However, if we assume the object is made of unit cubes or has integer symmetry...
* Let's try calculating with Height = $3\text{ cm}$.
* Split into vertical column and horizontal row.
* Column: $1\text{ (w)} \times 3\text{ (d)} \times 3\text{ (h)} = 9\text{ cm}^3$.
* Row (remaining part): Length $8\text{ (9-1)} \times 5\text{ (d)} \times 1\text{ (h)} = 40\text{ cm}^3$.
* Total: $49\text{ cm}^3$.
* Let's try calculating with Height = $5\text{ cm}$.
* Column: $1 \times 3 \times 5 = 15$.
* Row: $8 \times 5 \times 1 = 40$.
* Total: $55\text{ cm}^3$.
* Let's try calculating with Height = $4\text{ cm}$? No reason.
* Let's look at the visual aspect ratio. The left vertical edge looks longer than the right vertical edge ($1\text{ cm}$). It looks comparable to the depth ($3\text{ cm}$ or $5\text{ cm}$). It looks shorter than the length ($9\text{ cm}$).
* Between $3$ and $5$, $3$ seems visually more accurate relative to the depth line next to it.
* Alternative Idea: Is the "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left actually the height? If the left block is $1\text{ cm}$ high, and the right block is $1\text{ cm}$ high, then it's a flat shape.
* Left part: $1\text{ w} \times 3\text{ d} \times 1\text{ h} = 3$.
* Right part: $8\text{ l} \times 5\text{ d} \times 1\text{ h} = 40$.
* Total: $43$.
* Why would they draw it tall if it's flat? They wouldn't. The drawing clearly shows a tall left side.
* Therefore, the height is missing. In standardized tests, if a dimension is missing, check if it can be derived. Can it? No.
* Is there a typo in my reading?
* Left side: Top width $1\text{ cm}$. Depth $3\text{ cm}$.
* Right side: Depth $5\text{ cm}$. Height $1\text{ cm}$. Length $9\text{ cm}$.
* Maybe the total height is $3\text{ cm}$? If total height is $3$, and the right side is $1$, then the left side sticks up $2$ more? No, the left side is the full height.
* Let's assume the height of the left part is $3\text{ cm}$ based on the adjacent depth label being the only plausible candidate for a missing integer dimension in this specific geometry context (often depth=height in simple L-brackets unless specified).
* *Self-Correction*: I will provide the answer based on the most likely intended dimension, which is often that the vertical leg height equals the longer depth or is explicitly labeled. Wait, looking at Problem 6, the heights are explicit. Problem 3 is likely flawed or I am blind.
* Let's look at the "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left again. The arrow points to the vertical edge? No, it points to the top edge.
* Okay, I will bet on Height = $3\text{ cm}$ for the left part, making the volume $49\text{ cm}^3$.
* *Another possibility*: The label "$1\text{ cm}$" on the left is for the height, and the width is implied to be something else? No, the width is clearly the short side.
* Let's try one more calculation: What if the left part is $1\text{ cm}$ wide, $3\text{ cm}$ deep, and $5\text{ cm}$ high (matching the max depth)?
* Let's stick with the visual cue. The left vertical edge looks about the same length as the depth edge labeled $3$.
* Decision: I will use Height=$3$ for the left block.
* Vol = $(1 \times 3 \times 3) + (8 \times 5 \times 1) = 9 + 40 = 49\text{ cm}^3$.
*(Note: If the height was intended to be $5$, the answer would be $55$. If the height was intended to be $4$, it would be $52$. Without the label, this is an estimate. However, looking at the provided solution key for similar online worksheets, often the "missing" height matches the depth of that specific segment. So $3\text{ cm}$ is the strongest guess.)*
4)
* Split it: Left block ($10\text{ in} \times 3\text{ in} \times ?$) + Right block.
* Labels: Total width $10+?$ No, bottom is $10\text{ in}$ for the left part? No, the label $10\text{ in}$ is under the left part. The label $12\text{ in}$ is under the right part.
* So, Left Width = $10$, Right Width = $12$.
* Depths: Left Depth = $3\text{ in}$ (top label). Right Depth = $4\text{ in}$ (side label).
* Heights: Left Height = $5\text{ in}$ (side label). Right Height = ?
* Wait, the label "$5\text{ in}$" is on the vertical edge of the LEFT part.
* The label "$4\text{ in}$" is on the vertical edge of the RIGHT part? No, it's on the depth edge.
* Let's re-read carefully.
* Left Block: Width $10$, Depth $3$, Height $5$.
* Right Block: Width $12$, Depth $4$, Height $?$.
* The drawing shows the right block is lower. Is the height given?
* There is no height label for the right block.
* However, usually in these "L" shapes, the blocks are flush at the bottom.
* Is there a shared dimension?
* Maybe the "$5\text{ in}$" applies to the total height? And the right part is shorter?
* Or maybe the right part's height is half?
* Let's look at the label positions again.
* Left side: Top depth $3$, Side height $5$, Bottom width $10$.
* Right side: Bottom width $12$, Side depth $4$.
* Missing: Height of the right block.
* Visual check: The right block looks about half the height of the left block? Or maybe the height is $4\text{ in}$ (matching its depth)?
* Let's assume Height of right block = $4\text{ in}$.
* Left Vol: $10 \times 3 \times 5 = 150\text{ in}^3$.
* Right Vol: $12 \times 4 \times 4 = 192\text{ in}^3$.
* Total: $342\text{ in}^3$.
* Alternative: Maybe the right height is $5\text{ in}$ too? No, it's drawn shorter.
* Alternative: Maybe the label "$5\text{ in}$" is the TOTAL height, and the right part is... still unknown.
* Let's look at Problem 4 again. Is the "$5\text{ in}$" label for the left height or the right? It's next to the left block's vertical edge.
* Is it possible the shape is one single block with a cut?
* Total Width = $10 + 12 = 22$? No, they are joined.
* Let's assume the right height is $4\text{ in}$ (symmetry with depth).
* Answer: $342\text{ in}^3$.
*(Self-Correction on 3 and 4: These diagrams have ambiguous/missing labels. I will provide the most logical mathematical deduction based on standard worksheet patterns where missing vertical dimensions often match the adjacent horizontal/depth dimension if not specified, or imply a simpler relationship. For #3, Height=3. For #4, Right Height=4.)*
5)
* Split it: Left vertical tower + Right horizontal arm.
* Left Tower: Width $5\text{ m}$, Depth $2\text{ m}$ (from the inner corner label? No, the label $2\text{ m}$ is the thickness of the horizontal arm).
* Let's identify dims:
* Total Height: $11\text{ m}$.
* Total Width: $15\text{ m}$.
* Left Width: $5\text{ m}$.
* Right Arm Height/Thickness: $4\text{ m}$? No, label $4\text{ m}$ is on the right end height.
* Inner corner labels: $2\text{ m}$ is the height of the step? Or thickness?
* Let's trace the perimeter.
* Left side height: $11\text{ m}$.
* Bottom left width: $5\text{ m}$.
* Top total width: $15\text{ m}$.
* Right end height: $4\text{ m}$.
* Inner vertical drop: Label $2\text{ m}$? No, the label $2\text{ m}$ is near the inner corner. It likely indicates the thickness of the vertical wall or the horizontal floor.
* Let's assume the standard "two rectangle" split.
* Rectangle 1 (Left Vertical): Width $5\text{ m}$. Height $11\text{ m}$. Depth? The depth is not explicitly labeled on the outside. Wait, look at the inner corner. There is a "$2\text{ m}$" and a "$4\text{ m}$".
* The "$4\text{ m}$" is the height of the right arm.
* The "$2\text{ m}$" is likely the depth of the entire object? Or the width of the connection?
* Usually, depth is uniform. Let's assume Depth = $2\text{ m}$ (based on the label near the corner).
* So, Depth = $2\text{ m}$.
* Now, split vertically:
* Left Part: Width $5\text{ m}$, Height $11\text{ m}$, Depth $2\text{ m}$. Vol = $5 \times 11 \times 2 = 110\text{ m}^3$.
* Right Part: Total width $15$, so Right Width = $15 - 5 = 10\text{ m}$. Height = $4\text{ m}$. Depth = $2\text{ m}$. Vol = $10 \times 4 \times 2 = 80\text{ m}^3$.
* Total: $110 + 80 = 190\text{ m}^3$.
6)
* Split it: Left vertical tower + Right horizontal base.
* Dims:
* Total Height: $16\text{ cm}$.
* Total Width: $8\text{ cm}$.
* Top Width: $2\text{ cm}$.
* Right Height: $2\text{ cm}$.
* Inner Width: $3\text{ cm}$? The label $3\text{ cm}$ is on the horizontal surface of the right arm. This indicates the length of the right arm is $3\text{ cm}$? Or the remaining width?
* Let's check widths: Total $8$. Top (left) width $2$. So the right arm starts at $x=2$.
* The label $3\text{ cm}$ is on the top of the right arm. This usually means the length of that segment is $3$.
* If Right Arm Length = $3$, then there is a gap? $2 (\text{left}) + 3 (\text{right}) = 5$. Total is $8$. Where is the other $3$?
* Maybe the label $3\text{ cm}$ is the inner width of the vertical part? No.
* Maybe the label $3\text{ cm}$ is the depth?
* Let's look at the depth labels. There are none on the "front" faces.
* Wait, the label $2\text{ cm}$ on the right is height. The label $2\text{ cm}$ on the top is width.
* The label $3\text{ cm}$ is on the horizontal shelf.
* The label $8\text{ cm}$ is the total width.
* The label $16\text{ cm}$ is the total height.
* We need the Depth. Is the depth uniform?
* Often in these 2D-looking profiles, the depth is given by one label. Here, no explicit depth label like "depth = x".
* However, look at the label $3\text{ cm}$. It is along the receding axis? No, it's along the horizontal axis.
* Look at the label $2\text{ cm}$ on the top. It is along the receding axis? No, it's the short width.
* Is it possible the Depth is $3\text{ cm}$? The label $3\text{ cm}$ is placed on the face that represents the depth in some orientations? No, it's clearly on the width.
* Let's assume the Depth is $2\text{ cm}$ (matching the top width? Unlikely).
* Let's look at the label $3\text{ cm}$ again. It's on the horizontal part.
* Let's look at the label $8\text{ cm}$.
* Let's assume the Depth is $3\text{ cm}$? If the label $3\text{ cm}$ was meant to be depth, it's placed weirdly.
* Actually, look at the perspective. The $3\text{ cm}$ label is parallel to the $8\text{ cm}$ label. So it's a width/length dimension.
* The $2\text{ cm}$ label on top is parallel to the depth axis? Yes! The top-left label $2\text{ cm}$ is along the side going "back". So Depth = $2\text{ cm}$.
* Okay, Depth = $2\text{ cm}$.
* Now, widths:
* Left Width = $2\text{ cm}$ (from top label? No, the top label $2\text{ cm}$ is depth).
* We need the Left Width. Total Width = $8$.
* We have a label $3\text{ cm}$ on the right arm. Does this mean the Right Arm Width is $3$? Or the Left Width is $3$?
* The label $3\text{ cm}$ is on the right arm. So Right Arm Width = $3\text{ cm}$?
* If Right Arm Width = $3$, and Total = $8$, then Left Width = $5$.
* Let's check the top label again. The top label $2\text{ cm}$ is on the left block's top face, along the depth edge. So Depth = $2$.
* Is there a width label for the left block? No.
* Is there a width label for the right block? Yes, $3\text{ cm}$.
* So, Left Width = $8 - 3 = 5\text{ cm}$.
* Heights:
* Total Height = $16\text{ cm}$.
* Right Arm Height = $2\text{ cm}$.
* Left Block Height = $16\text{ cm}$.
* Calculation:
* Left Block: Width $5$, Depth $2$, Height $16$. Vol = $5 \times 2 \times 16 = 160\text{ cm}^3$.
* Right Block: Width $3$, Depth $2$, Height $2$. Vol = $3 \times 2 \times 2 = 12\text{ cm}^3$.
* Total: $160 + 12 = 172\text{ cm}^3$.
7)
* Split it: Left block + Right block.
* Dims:
* Left Height: $5\text{ ft}$.
* Left Width: $3\text{ ft}$.
* Right Length: $7\text{ ft}$? No, label $7\text{ ft}$ is the total length of the bottom? Or the right part? The line extends under the right part. Let's assume Right Part Length = $7\text{ ft}$.
* Top Length: $6\text{ ft}$. This is the length of the left part? Or the right part? The label $6\text{ ft}$ is on the top of the right-ish part? No, it's on the top of the left part?
* Let's trace:
* Left block is tall. Right block is long/low.
* Label $5\text{ ft}$: Height of left block.
* Label $3\text{ ft}$: Width of left block.
* Label $2\text{ ft}$: Depth (top right label).
* Label $6\text{ ft}$: Length of the top surface of the RIGHT block? Or the LEFT? The line is over the right block. So Right Block Length = $6\text{ ft}$.
* Label $7\text{ ft}$: Length of the bottom of the RIGHT block?
* This is contradictory. Top $6$, Bottom $7$? That would mean it's a trapezoid, not a rect prism.
* Re-examine: The label $6\text{ ft}$ is on the top edge of the Left block? No, the left block is narrow ($3\text{ ft}$). The $6\text{ ft}$ label spans the longer section.
* The label $7\text{ ft}$ spans the same section at the bottom.
* This implies the length is $6$ on top and $7$ on bottom? Impossible for rectangular blocks.
* Alternative: The label $6\text{ ft}$ is the Total Length? And $7\text{ ft}$ is something else?
* Let's look at the lines.
* Line for $6\text{ ft}$: Starts at the inner corner, ends at the right edge. So Right Block Length = $6\text{ ft}$.
* Line for $7\text{ ft}$: Starts at the left edge of the RIGHT block? Or the left edge of the WHOLE shape?
* The line for $7\text{ ft}$ seems to start at the left edge of the right block and go to the right edge.
* So we have Length = $6$ and Length = $7$ for the same block?
* Maybe the $7\text{ ft}$ is the Total Length of the whole L-shape?
* If Total Length = $7$, and Left Width = $3$, then Right Block Length = $7 - 3 = 4\text{ ft}$.
* Then what is $6\text{ ft}$? Maybe the Right Block Length is $6$?
* If Right Block Length = $6$, and Left Width = $3$, Total = $9$.
* Let's look at the label $6\text{ ft}$ again. It is on the top.
* Let's look at the label $7\text{ ft}$ again. It is on the bottom.
* Maybe the Left Block Width is NOT $3$? The label $3\text{ ft}$ is on the front face width.
* Maybe the shape is tapered? No, "Volume of L-Blocks" implies prisms.
* Most likely interpretation:
* Depth = $2\text{ ft}$ (from top right label).
* Left Block: Width $3\text{ ft}$, Height $5\text{ ft}$.
* Right Block: Height? Not labeled. Assume same as depth? Or half of left?
* Let's look for a height label on the right. None.
* Let's look for a length label.
* If $6\text{ ft}$ is the length of the right block, and $7\text{ ft}$ is the total length... then Left Width = $7 - 6 = 1\text{ ft}$. But Left Width is labeled $3\text{ ft}$. Contradiction.
* If $7\text{ ft}$ is the length of the right block, and $6\text{ ft}$ is... ?
* Let's assume the label $6\text{ ft}$ is the Total Length.
* If Total Length = $6$, and Left Width = $3$, then Right Block Length = $3$.
* Then what is $7\text{ ft}$? Maybe the label is $1\text{ ft}$? No, looks like $7$.
* Maybe the label $3\text{ ft}$ is the height of the right block? No, it's on the front vertical edge of the left block? No, it's on the bottom front edge.
* Let's try: Left Width = $3$. Right Length = $7$ (bottom label). Total Length = $10$.
* Then what is $6\text{ ft}$? Maybe the Right Block Height? No, it's horizontal.
* Maybe the Right Block Height is $2\text{ ft}$ (matching depth)?
* And the Right Block Length is $6\text{ ft}$ (top label).
* And the Total Length is $7\text{ ft}$?
* If Total = $7$ and Right = $6$, then Left Width = $1$. But Left Width is labeled $3$.
* There is a serious contradiction in the labels for #7.
* Let's look at the label $3\text{ ft}$ again. It is on the side of the left block. It could be the Depth?
* If Depth = $3\text{ ft}$.
* Then the label $2\text{ ft}$ on the top right is... Width?
* If Right Width = $2\text{ ft}$.
* And Right Length = $6\text{ ft}$?
* And Left Height = $5\text{ ft}$.
* And Total Length = $7\text{ ft}$.
* If Total Length = $7$ and Right Length = $6$? No, lengths are along the same axis.
* Let's assume the axis along the bottom is Length.
* Label $7\text{ ft}$ is Total Length.
* Label $3\text{ ft}$ is Left Width.
* Therefore, Right Length = $7 - 3 = 4\text{ ft}$.
* Label $6\text{ ft}$ is on the top. Maybe it's the Left Length? No, left is width $3$.
* Maybe the label $6\text{ ft}$ is the Right Length and the label $7\text{ ft}$ is a mistake or refers to something else?
* Or maybe the label $3\text{ ft}$ is the Right Height?
* Let's try this:
* Depth = $2\text{ ft}$ (top right).
* Left Block: Height $5$, Width $3$ (front label).
* Right Block: Length $6$ (top label). Height $2$ (assumed from depth?).
* If Right Length = $6$, and Left Width = $3$, Total = $9$.
* The label $7\text{ ft}$ is the outlier.
* Let's try ignoring the $7$.
* Left Vol: $3 \times 2 \times 5 = 30$.
* Right Vol: $6 \times 2 \times 2 = 24$. (Assuming height=2).
* Total: $54$.
* Let's try ignoring the $6$.
* Right Length = $7 - 3 = 4$.
* Right Vol: $4 \times 2 \times 2 = 16$.
* Left Vol: $30$.
* Total: $46$.
* Given the ambiguity, $46\text{ ft}^3$ (using the bottom total length) is a safer bet for "Total Length" labels usually overriding internal ones if there's a conflict, OR $54\text{ ft}^3$ if the top label is more precise.
* However, look at the label $2\text{ ft}$ on the top right. It is on the short edge. That is Depth.
* Look at the label $3\text{ ft}$ on the bottom left. That is Width.
* Look at the label $5\text{ ft}$ on the left. That is Height.
* Look at the label $6\text{ ft}$ on the top right. That is Length of the right arm.
* Look at the label $7\text{ ft}$ on the bottom right. That is Length of the right arm.
* Why two labels for the same thing? $6$ and $7$?
* Maybe the $7\text{ ft}$ is the Total Length and the $3\text{ ft}$ is the Left Width.
* If Total = $7$ and Left = $3$, Right = $4$.
* Then the $6\text{ ft}$ label is wrong or I'm misinterpreting it.
* Actually, the $6\text{ ft}$ label might be for the Left Block's Length if the shape is rotated? No.
* I will go with Total Length = $7$, Left Width = $3$, so Right Length = $4$.
* Height of Right Block: Not labeled. Assume $2\text{ ft}$ (same as depth, common in these puzzles).
* Left Vol: $3 \times 2 \times 5 = 30$.
* Right Vol: $4 \times 2 \times 2 = 16$.
* Total: $46\text{ ft}^3$.
8)
* Split it: Two slanted blocks? No, they are rectangular prisms, just drawn in perspective.
* Dims:
* Left Block: Length $12\text{ in}$, Width $6\text{ in}$, Height $2\text{ in}$?
* Right
