Question

Find the volume of the triangular prismA) 2227.5B) 227.5C) 247.5D) 230

Answer 1

The volume of the triangular prism is 227.5 in^3

Explanation:

We have that the volume formula for a triangular prism is:

`\begin{gathered} V=A_b\cdot l \\ \text{The area of the triangular base would be:} \\ A_b=(b\cdot h)/(2) \end{gathered}`

Replacing:

`\begin{gathered} V=(b\cdot h)/(2)\cdot l \\ V=(5\cdot7)/(2)\cdot13 \\ V=227.5 \end{gathered}`
