Question

Find the volume of this triangular prism.Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.8 cm7 cm→5 cm

Answer 1

The formula to find the volume of a triangular prism is the following:

`V=(1)/(2)h\cdot b\cdot w`

where:

h - height

b - base length

w - width

for this problem:

h = 8 cm

b = 5 cm

w = 7 cm

then

`V=(1)/(2)8\cdot5\cdot7`

solving this, we obtain that the volume of the triangular prism is 140 cm^3 or cubic centimeters
