Question

find the volume of the triangular prismA) 2227.5B) 227.5C) 247.5D) 230

Answer 1

ANSWER:

The volume of the triangular prism is 227.5 in^3

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We have that the volume formula for a triangular prism is:

$\begin{gathered} V=A_b\cdot l \\ \text{The area of the triangular base would be:} \\ A_b=\frac{b\cdot h}{2} \end{gathered}$

Replacing:

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{b\cdot h}{2}\cdot l \\ V=\frac{5\cdot7}{2}\cdot13 \\ V=227.5 \end{gathered}$
