Two joined rectangular prismsTwo right rectangular prisms are joined side by side with no gaps or overlapping space. Their bottoms and front and back faces line up. Both parts have the same depth. Part A is the taller left part; part B is the shorter right part. The whole front length is 7 ft. The right part B is 3 ft long; the left part A's length is labeled L and is unknown. Both parts are 6 ft deep. Part A's full height is 7 ft, measured from the common bottom to its top. Part B's full height is 4 ft, measured from the common bottom to its top. A front seam marks the two parts. The drawing is schematic, not to scale.Lengths (ft)AB74L367Schematic · not to scale
