Question

What numbers do I have to multiply to find the volume of the triangular prism?

Answer 1

Triangular prism is a prism whose triangle as the base. The volume of a triangular prism could be determined using
$\boxed{v= \text{area of base} \times \text{height of prism}}$

Remember, the base is a triangle, so the formula will be
$v= \text{area of triangle} \times \text{height of prism}$
$v = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base of triangle} \times \text{height of triangle} \times \text{height of prism}$

plug in the numbers
$v= \frac{1}{2} \times 30 \times 36 \times 61$
v = 15 × 36 × 61
v = 16,740
The volume is 16,740 cm³
