Answer:

348 km³

Explanation:

The volume of the triangular prism can be calculated using the formula, Volume = base area of the prism*the length of the prism

Base area of the prism = area of triangle = ½*base of the triangle*height of the triangle

Base of the triangle = 12 km

Height of the traingle = 5.8

Therefore,

Base area = ½*12*5.8

= 6*5.8

Base area = 34.8 km²

Length of prism = 10 km

Volume of prism = base area*prism length

= 34.8*10

Volume of triangular prism = 348 km³
