Question

What is the volume of the triangular prism to the nearest whole unit

360
240
1440
720

Answer 1

Answer:360 ft^3

Explanation:

Area of ∆=1/2*15*3

Area of ∆=22.5ft^2

Volume of prism=Area of ∆* height

Volume of prism=22.5*16

Volume of prism=360ft^3

Answer 2

V = 360 ft^3

Explanation:

V = b*h

where b is the area of the triangular base and h is the height

The base is a triangle so we take 1/2 the base times the height

b = 1/2 15*3

= 1/2 (45) = 22.5

V = 22.5 * 16

V = 360 ft^3
