I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let me correct it:

The area of ONE base of the triangular prism can be calculated using the formula for the area of a triangle, which is (1/2) * base * height.

For the given base of 4 cm and height of 3 cm:
Area of ONE base = (1/2) * 4 cm * 3 cm = 6 square centimeters

Since the prism has TWO bases, the total area of the TWO bases would be:
2 * 6 square centimeters = 12 square centimeters

So, the correct answer is 12 square centimeters. Thank you for pointing out the error.
