Answer:

120

Explanation:

The prism shown is a triangular prism

The volume of a triangular prism can be found by multiplying the area of the base ( which is a triangle ) by the length of the prism ( which is 10 feet )

First let's find the area of the base.

To find the area of a triangle we use this formula
A=(bh)/(2)

where b = base length and h = height

The base length is 6ft and the height is 4ft.

Using these dimensions we plug in the values into the formula


(4*6)/(2) \\4*6=24\\(24)/(2) =12

So the area of the base is 12ft²

Finally to find the volume we multiply the area of the base by the length of the prism

12 * 10 = 120

Hence, the volume of the prism is 120ft³
