Question

Determine the volume of the triangular prism. h = 5m at the bottom middle 3m at the bottom 8.5m on the right side


24.5 cubic meters

63.75 cubic meters

127.5 cubic meters

225 cubic meters

Answer 1

The volume of a triangular prism can be calculated by the formula V = 1/2 * b * h * l, where b is the length of the base of the triangle, h is the height of the triangle, and l is the length of the prism.

Given:
b = 3m
h = 5m
l = 8.5m

Plugging in the values:
V = 1/2 * 3 * 5 * 8.5
V = 1/2 * 15 * 8.5
V = 7.5 * 8.5
V = 63.75 cubic meters

Therefore, the volume of the triangular prism is 63.75 cubic meters.
