Answer:

The height is 45 m

Explanation:

The volume of a triangular prism is V = (1/3)(area of base)(height)

If the voume is 240 m^3 and the area of the base 16 m^2, then the height of the prism is determined as follows:

3V = (area of base)(height)

Dividing both sides by (area of the base), we get:

3(240m^3)

height = ------------------------- = 45 m

16 m^2
