Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The base of a triangular prism has an area of 18 square inches .  

And the height is 4.5 inches.

Now, to get the triangular prism volume.

The base area = 18 square inches.

Height = 4.5 inches.

Now, to get the volume of prism we put formula:

Volume=\frac{1}{2} \times base\ area\times height\\\\Volume=\frac{1}{2} \times 18\times 4.5\\\\Volume=40.5\ cubic\ inches.

Therefore, the volume for the triangular prism is 40.5 cubic inches.
