1. **Problem Statement:**
We have three scale drawings of a prism: front view (6 units wide by 6 units tall), side view (8 units wide by 3 units tall), and plan view (8 units wide by 3 units tall). The 3D drawing shows an L-shaped prism with a bottom horizontal length of 25 cm, and two missing lengths: a top horizontal length and a vertical height.
2. **Understanding the Views:**
- The front view shows height and width (6 units by 6 units).
- The side and plan views both show the depth and height (8 units by 3 units).
3. **Relating Scale Units to Actual Lengths:**
- The bottom horizontal length in the 3D drawing corresponds to the total width from the front view, which is 6 units.
- The bottom length is given as 25 cm, so each unit in width corresponds to $$\frac{25}{6}$$ cm.
4. **Finding the Missing Top Horizontal Length:**
- The top horizontal length corresponds to the difference in width between the front view and the side view projections.
- From the front view, width is 6 units; from the side view, depth is 8 units.
- The L-shape means the top horizontal length is the difference between the total width (6 units) and the width of the side segment (which corresponds to 8 units depth).
- However, since the side view width is 8 units and the front view width is 6 units, the top horizontal length corresponds to the side view width (8 units) minus the front view width (6 units), but this is not possible since 8 > 6.
- Instead, the bottom horizontal length (25 cm) corresponds to the sum of the two horizontal segments in the L-shape: the bottom segment (given as 25 cm) and the top segment (missing).
5. **Calculating the Missing Top Horizontal Length:**
- The total horizontal length in the plan view is 8 units.
- The bottom horizontal segment corresponds to 6 units (from front view width).
- So, the missing top horizontal length corresponds to $$8 - 6 = 2$$ units.
- Using the scale from bottom segment: 6 units = 25 cm, so 1 unit = $$\frac{25}{6}$$ cm.
- Therefore, missing top horizontal length = $$2 \times \frac{25}{6} = \frac{50}{6} = 8.33$$ cm (approx).
6. **Finding the Missing Vertical Length:**
- The vertical height corresponds to the height difference between the front view and the side view.
- Front view height is 6 units; side view height is 3 units.
- The missing vertical length is the difference: $$6 - 3 = 3$$ units.
- We need to find the scale for height.
7. **Calculating the Scale for Height:**
- From the side view, height is 3 units.
- The side view height corresponds to the vertical segment in the 3D drawing.
- Since the side view height is 3 units, and the front view height is 6 units, the missing vertical length corresponds to 3 units.
- Using the scale from the front view height: 6 units correspond to an unknown length, but since the bottom horizontal length scale is $$\frac{25}{6}$$ cm per unit, we assume the same scale applies vertically.
- So, missing vertical length = $$3 \times \frac{25}{6} = \frac{75}{6} = 12.5$$ cm.
**Final answers:**
- Missing top horizontal length = 8.33 cm (approx).
- Missing vertical length = 12.5 cm.
These lengths should be written on the 3D drawing accordingly.
