Volume=594cm^3

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

as this is a equilateral triangle, every side measures 9 cm

so, the volume of the prism is


\begin{gathered} \text{Volume}=\text{area of the trianlge}\cdot length \\ \text{Volume}=((base\cdot hegith)/(2)\cdot\text{length)} \end{gathered}

then,Let

base=9 cm

heigth=6 cm

length=22 cm

now, replace.


\begin{gathered} \text{Volume}=((base\cdot hegith)/(2)\cdot\text{length)} \\ \text{Volume}=(\frac{9cm\cdot6\text{ cm}}{2}\cdot\text{22 cm)} \\ \text{Volume}=((54cm^(^2))/(2))\cdot22 \\ Volume=594cm^3 \\ \end{gathered}

I hope this helps you
