Answer: 90 cubic meters

Each triangle has a base of 10 and height of 3.6

area of triangle = 0.5*base*height = 0.5*10*3.6 = 18 square meters

multiply this with the height of the prism (5 meters) to get 18*5 = 90 cubic meters. I'm using the idea that,

volume of prism = (area of base face)*(height of prism)

The notation "m^3" is shorthand for "cubic meters"

We do not use the other dimensions of 9 m and 7 m.
