To find the volume of a right triangular prism, you would use the formula:
Volume = (1/2) * base * height * length
In the given right triangular prism shown below, the base is the right triangle with sides of 4 inches and 3 inches, the height is 6 inches, and the length is 5 inches.
Plugging these values into the formula:
Volume = (1/2) * 4 * 3 * 6 * 5
Volume = 36 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the right triangular prism is 36 cubic inches.
What is the volume, in cubic inches, of the right triangular prism shown below?
