To find the volume of a triangular prism, you can use the formula:
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height}
\]
First, we need to calculate the area of the triangular base. The base of the triangle can be calculated using the formula:
\[
\text{Area of triangle} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
\]
Here, you have provided the dimensions as:
- Length (l) of the prism = 18 inches (this will be considered as the height of the prism)
- Width (w) = 13 inches (this represents the base of the triangle)
- There is no explicit height for the triangular base given, but for the sake of this calculation, let’s assume that the triangular base uses the provided dimensions.
Assuming the triangle has a base width of 13 inches and a height (h) of 18 inches, the area of the triangle would be:
\[
\text{Area of triangle} = \frac{1}{2} \times 13 \times 18 = \frac{1}{2} \times 234 = 117 \text{ square inches}
\]
Now, to find the volume of the prism, we multiply the base area by the length of the prism. Here, the length (l), which corresponds to the height of the prism, is also taken as 18 inches:
\[
\text{Volume} = \text{Base Area} \times \text{Height} = 117 \times 18
\]
Calculating that:
\[
117 \times 18 = 2106 \text{ cubic inches}
\]
This volume does not match any of the options provided, which are:
- 3,276 cubic inches
- 591.5 cubic inches
- 1,638 cubic inches
- 819 cubic inches
To find the right dimensions, please clarify whether:
1. The triangle height is different from the length dimension.
2. The triangular base dimensions are accurate.
If we stick strictly to base = 13 inches and height = 18 inches, for a triangular prism standing upright, we reflected only upon values given. A review or clarification on the base dimensions may lead to expected volumes.
Let’s clarify, if any other triangle dimensions apply specifically, please share.
We have based it solely on provided dimensions summarily as a working example instead of explicit expected. Would you revisit specifics for baby step in solving? If strict values yield no fitting in answer, revision on base specifically not clearly explicit will beckon learning.
Please share more details if available to rectify.
