Answer:


211.75m^2

Explanation:

Volume of triangular prism= Area of base Triangle x Height

Base Triangle dimensions:
10m*11m*9m

Base Triangle height,
h_b=
7.7m

Area Base Triangle,
A_b=(h_bb)/(2)


A_b=0.5*11m*7.7m\\=42.35m^2

Prism height,
h_p=5m

Therefore area,
A_p of prism is obtained as:


A_p=A_b* h_p\\=42.35m^2* 5m\\=211.75m^2

Area of the prism is
211.75m^2
