Answer:

• base area: 21 ft²
• volume 105 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is given by the formula ...

  A = (1/2)bh

The base and height of a right triangle can be taken to be the leg lengths, since each is perpendicular to the other.

  A = (1/2)(6 ft)(7 ft) = 21 ft² . . . . base area

__

The volume is the product of the base area and the height:

  V = Bh

  V = (21 ft²)(5 ft) = 105 ft³ . . . . volume
