Question

what is the volume of a triangular prism with a base of 2cm a height of 3cm and a length of 7cm

Answer 1

The formula to find the volume of a triangular prism is:
Volume = (base area) x height

First, calculate the base area of the triangular prism:
Base area = (1/2) x base x height
Base area = (1/2) x 2cm x 3cm
Base area = 3cm^2

Now, multiply the base area by the length of the prism to get the volume:
Volume = 3cm^2 x 7cm
Volume = 21cm^3

Therefore, the volume of the triangular prism is 21 cubic centimeters.
