Answer:

30 miles²

Explanation:

To solve the area of the prism we have to multiply the area of the base * the height of the prism. The base of the prism is a right triangle.

(b*h)÷2 = Area of a triangle

Base = 4

Height = 3

Now:

(4*3)/2 = 6 miles²

Now we have to multiply 6 miles² by 5 as our height.

We get 30 miles² as the volume of the figure.
