Answer

Option C is correct.

Volume of the triangular prism = 49 ft³

Step-by-step explanation

The volume of any prism is given as

Volume of the prism

= (Area of the base or face that is seperated by a perpendicular distance) × (Perpendicular distance between the faces)

For this triangular prism, the base or face is a triangle.

Area of the base or face that is seperated by a perpendicular distance

= Area of a triangle

= ½ (Base) (Height)

= ½ (4) (3.5)

= 7 ft²

Perpendicular distance between the faces = 7 ft

Volume of the prism

= (Area of the base or face that is seperated by a perpendicular distance) × (Perpendicular distance between the faces)

= 7 × 7

= 49 ft³

Hope this Helps!!!
