Answer:

Explanation:

Any prism volume is equal to the area of the base (B) multiplied by the height of prism (H)

V = BH

Now, to find the area of the base you need this formula : B = 1/2 h(b1+b2), then multiply by the height of the prism.

Answer:

The prism volume formula is B*h B (area of one end) =0.5*1000*566 = 283,000 mm 2 (area of a triangle) H (length/height of prism) = 1000 mm
