Answer:

360 cm^3

Explanation:

The solid is a triangular prism.

It has a triangular base and a height of 0.6 m.

The base is a right triangle with perpendicular sides measuring 3 cm and 4 cm. Those sides are the base and height used to find the area of the base of the prism.

volume = area of base * height

We need all units to be the same, so convert the height from meters to centimeters.

0.6 m * (100 cm)/(1 m) = 60 cm

volume = bh/2 * H

volume = (3 cm)(4 cm)/2 * 60 cm

volume = 360 cm^3
