Answer 1

To find the volume of a triangular prism, you would use the formula:

\[ V = \frac{1}{2} b h \cdot l \]

where:
- \( b \) is the base of the triangular cross-section,
- \( h \) is the height of the triangular cross-section,
- \( l \) is the length (or height) of the prism.

So, from your options, the correct formula is:

**V = (1/2)bh * l** (assuming l represents the length of the prism).

In your list, this corresponds to:

**V = (1/2)bh * h** if "h" is meant to represent the length of the prism. Just ensure the context is clear for each variable.
