Given:
Triangular prism.
Base area : 37.4 square yards
height : 5 yards

To find the volume of the ramp based on the given figures, we simply multiply the base area by the height.

Volume = base area * height
V = 37.4 square yards * 5 yards
V = 187 cubic yards.

The volume of the triangular prism-shaped ramp is 187 cubic yards.
