Answer: Height of the water is 20 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Base area = 100 square cm
volume of vase shaped like an octogonal prism = 2 liters
We need to find the height of water.
and 1 liter = 1000 cm³
2 liters = 2×1000 cm³
As we know the formula for "Volume":
[tex]Volume=\text{Base Area}\times height\\\\2\times 1000=100\times height\\\\height=\dfrac{2000}{100}\\\\height=20\ cm[/tex]
Hence, height of the water is 20 cm.
