Question

Find the volume of the triangular prism. Please give an explanation if you can!

Answer 1

9x14=126

63x8=1008

1008x.5=504cm

Explanation:

Remember the formula for calculating volume is: Volume = Area by height. V = A X h.

For a triangle the area is calculated using the formula: Area = half of base by altitude. A = 0.5 X b X a.

So to calculate the volume of a triangular prism, the formula is: V = 0.5 X b X a X h.
