here are the answers for parts (a), (b), and (c):

The frustum ABCDEFGH is part of a right pyramid.
Given dimensions:
Base ABCD: AB=9AB = 9 cm, BC=12BC = 12 cm.
Top EFGH: FG=6FG = 6 cm, GH=8GH = 8 cm.
Height of the frustum = 10 cm.

a) Find the height of the pyramid.

Step 1: Determine the ratio of corresponding sides of the bases.
The bases ABCD and EFGH are similar rectangles.
Ratio of lengths: ABFG=96=32\frac{AB}{FG} = \frac{9}{6} = \frac{3}{2}.
Ratio of
