Question

Determine the ratio of surface area to volume of the triangular prism

Answer 1

The surface area of a Triangular prism is given as;

`SA=bh+(s_1+s_2+s_3)H`

The volume of a triangular prism is given as;

`V=(1)/(2)bhl`

The ratio of surface area to volume of the triangular prism​

`\text{ratio}=(SA)/(V)=(bh+(s_1+s_2+s_3)H)/((1)/(2)bhl)`
