Question

A triangular prism is 15 yards long and has a triangular face with a base of 12.9 yards and a height of 10.3 yards. what is the volume of the triangular prism?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Area of the base = 1/2 * B * h

B: 12.9

h = 10.3

Area of the face = 1/2 * 12.9 * 10.3

Area of the face = 66.435

Volume = Triangle * height

Triangle = 66.435 yd^2

Height = 15 yd

Volume = 66.435 * 15

volume = 996.525

I think this should be rounded to one decimal place: 996.5
