Question

Please help me solve. The last tutor came up with 24 and that was not correct.

Answer 1

The answers is 30.

First you want to do 5 x 3 and divide it by 2, to get the area of a triangle.
You will get 7.5, then multiply it my 4 to get the area of the full prism.
So, the final answer is 30

Answer 2

EXPLANATION

Let's see the facts about the triangular prism:

Base= 5 units

Length = 4 units

Diagonal 3 units

The volume of a triangular prism os given by the following relationship:

`\text{Volume}=(1)/(2)\cdot base\cdot length\cdot height=(1)/(2)\cdot5\cdot4\cdot3=(1)/(2)\cdot60=30units^3`

The answer is 30 cubic units.
