Answer 1

Answer:

Volume of the prism =  280 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the volume of a prism is given by the  following formula:

Volume = B * H

where B is the area of the base (in our case a right angle triangle), and H is the prism's height (in our case 16 ft)

Then we estimate the area of the triangle at the base as base* height/2 :

Area triangle = 5 * 7 / 2 = 35/2 ft^2

and multiply by the prism's height to get its volume:

Volume = 35/2 * 16 = 280 ft^3
