v = Bh
you know how to figure B -- it's just the area of the triangle, so ...
What is the volume of the triangular prism?
Height: 12mm
Base: 15mm
Width:7mm
1) 34mm cubed
2) 187mm cubed
3) 630mm cubed
4) 1,260mm cubed

I so sorry but I don't get it....
I'm thinking that I have the numbers here wrong but could you just tell me what I need to do in a way that is not confusing
well, you haven't said which two dimensions constitute the triangular base. If the triangle has base=15 and height=12, then its area is 90. Then the volume is 90*7 = 630
I can 100% understand your analysis but would you mind explaining to me how in the world you did it. I just want to learn so that next time I can do it on my own and maybe even teach someone else? I would appreciate it!
just as the volume of a rectangular brick is length*width*height, it is also base*height, with the base having area B=length*width, so v = Bh
A triangular prism also has volume Bh, where B is the area of the triangular base.
try googling prisms and volumes for more discussions. Whenever you are having trouble with whole ideas, and not just specific problems, google is the best place to start. Whatever is troubling you has been treated before.

The ans is 630 mm cubed because 12*15/2=90*width or 7=630.
and ur welcome
