To find the volume of the prism, we first need to calculate the area of the base triangle of the prism. Since the base of the prism is a triangle with side lengths of 7 m and 8 m, we can calculate the area using the formula for the area of a triangle:
Area = 1/2 * base * height
Area = 1/2 * 8 * 7
Area = 28 square meters
Now, to find the volume of the prism, we multiply the area of the base by the height of the prism:
Volume = Area of base * Height
Volume = 28 * 15
Volume = 420 cubic meters
Therefore, the volume of the prism is 420 cubic meters.
A prism and a pyramid have a congruent triangular bases if the heights are both 15 m what is the volume of the prism
