Find the volume of an equilateral triangular prism with triangles of side 4 cm and length 10 cm

OpenStudy (hihi):

i know it is area X height, but im not sure how to get the 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's actually V = (1/2)base*length*height

OpenStudy (hihi):

but how would you get the correct answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that really how the question is worded? exactly?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh wait.. sorry i get it now

OpenStudy (hihi):

oh

OpenStudy (hihi):

because i read and saw that to get the volume of a triangular prism it said area X height
