Answer:


\large\boxed{V=630\ mm^3}

Explanation:

The formula of a volume of a prism:


V=A_BH


A_B-area\ of\ a \ base\\H-height

In the base we have the right triangle. Calculate the area:


A_B=(1)/(2)bh


b-base\\h-height

We have b = 15 mm and h = 12 mm. Substitute:


A_B=(1)/(2)(15)(12)=(15)(6)=90\ mm^2

Calculate the volume:


A_B=90\ mm^2,\ H=7\ mm\\\\V=(90)(7)=630\ mm^3
