Question

Work out the volume of the prism. 6 cm 12 cm 2 cm​

Answer 1

V = 72 cm³

Explanation:

the volume (V) of a prism is calculated as

V = Ah ( A is the area of the triangular face and h is its height )

A =
`(1)/(2)` bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )

here b = 12 and h = 6

A =
`(1)/(2)` × 12 × 6 = 6 × 6 = 36 cm² , then

V = 36 × 2 = 72 cm³
