Given:

A triangular prism with height 9 ft and triangular base.

The base of the triangle is 8 ft and the height of the triangle is 9 ft.

To find:

The volume of the triangular prism.

Solution:

Volume of the triangular prism is:


V=Bh

Where, B is the base area and h is the height of the triangular prism.

Area of a triangle is:


Area=(1)/(2)* base * height

The base area of triangular prism is:


B=(1)/(2)* 8* 9


B=4* 9


B=36

Now, the volume of the triangular prism is:


V=36* 9


V=324

Therefore, the volume of the triangular prism is 324 cubic ft.
