Answer 1

The volume for the triangular prism is 40.5 cubic inches.

Explanation:

Given:

The base of a triangular prism has an area of 18 square inches .

And the height is 4.5 inches.

Now, to get the triangular prism volume.

The base area = 18 square inches.

Height = 4.5 inches.

Now, to get the volume of prism we put formula:

`Volume=(1)/(2) * base\ area* height\\\\Volume=(1)/(2) * 18* 4.5\\\\Volume=40.5\ cubic\ inches.`

Therefore, the volume for the triangular prism is 40.5 cubic inches.
