To find the volume of a triangular prism, you need to multiply the area of the base (the front triangular face) by the length of the prism.

The area of the front triangular face can be calculated using the formula for the area of a triangle: 1/2 * base * height. So, in this case, the area of the front triangular face is 1/2 * 12 * 2 = 12 square feet.

Now, to find the volume, multiply the area of the base by the length of the prism: 12 * 18 = 216 cubic feet.

Therefore, the volume of the triangular prism is 216 cubic feet.

So, the correct answer is: 216 ft3
