Question

Which could be the area of the base of a triangular prism?

Answer 1

Option A:

The area of the base of the triangular prism is 6 ft².

Solution:

The base of the triangular prism is triangle.

Base of the triangle is 4 ft.

Height of the triangle is 3 ft.

Area of the base of the prism = Area of the triangle

                                                 = $\frac{1}{2} bh$

                                                 $=\frac{1}{2}\times 4 \times 3$

Area of the base of the prism = 6 ft²

The area of the base of the triangular prism is 6 ft².

Hence option A is the correct answer.
