Question

A company developed a box in the shape of a

triangular prism, as shown below.

A formula for the volume of a triangular prism is V = Bh . Which expression can be used to find B , the area of the base of this prism in square centimeters?

Answer 1

12cm^2

Explanation:

B is triangle, so the area of B is the area of triangle.

B=ah/2, where a=6 and h=4

B=6*4/2=12 cm^2

Volume: V=Bh where h is 9cm (from picture)

V=12cm^2*9cm=108cm^3
