To find the area of the base of a triangular prism, we need to find the area of the triangle that is the base.
The formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2 * base * height. In this case, the height of the triangle is the height of the prism, which is 3 cm.
Substitute the given values into the formula:
Base = 2 cm
Height = 3 cm
Area = 1/2 * 2 * 3 = 3 square cm
Therefore, the area of the base of the triangular prism is 3 square cm.
When finding the volume of a triangular prism, first we must find the area of the base. What is the area of the base of the triangular prism
H- 3CM
L- 2CM
W- 7CM
