Question

Find the volume of this triangular prism. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.

Answer 1

Answer: 360

Explanation:

volume is base times height

Answer 2

`120in^3`

Explanation:

Find the diagram attached.

The volume of a triangular prism =
`(base\ area *height)/(3)`

Since the base is a triangle, Base area = 1/2 * base * height

given base of the triangular base = 8in

height of the triangle = 9in

Base area = 1/2 * 8 * 9

Base area = 4*9

Base area = 36in²

Height of the prism = 10in

Volume of the prism =
`(36*10)/(3)`

Volume of the prism =
`12*10`

Volume of the prism =
`120in^3`
