Question

What is the volume of the following prism?this is a prism with a right triangle as the base. The width of the triangle is 8 inches and the height of the triangle is 8 inches. The height of the prism is 12 inches.A. 768 m³B. 150 m³C. 384 m³D. 374 m³

Answer 1

Given the following information

Volume of the prism=?

base of the prism= right triangle

volume of a prism with a right triangle as a base is given by

`(1)/(2)*b*a*h`

where

b= base of the triangle = 8

a= height of the triangle = 8

h= height of the prism=12

`V=(1)/(2)8*8*12`
`V=(768)/(2)`
`V=384m^3`
