Question

What is the volume of the prism?

Answer 1

Volume = Base * height

Base = area of the triangle (remember 1/2 * b * h ?)

Height = your depth here



Or if you prefer the way the computer does it...
\[Volume=\frac{n}{4}hs^2 \cot\frac{\pi}{n}\]
where
n = the number of sides
h = height, as before
s = length of any one side


I think you would have a much easier time doing the former method however for something simple like this (simple because it's just a triangle)

Answer 2

area of the base
*height
