Question

Find the volume of the triangular prism.

a. 756 cm3
b. 810 cm3
c. 972 cm3
d. 1944 cm3

Answer 1

Do you know how to calculate the area of a triangle?

Answer 2

Nope. haha. I'm terrible at math.

Answer 3

Then it is a big leap to learn to calculate volume when you don't know how to calculate area. The formula for the area of a triangle is: A=.5bh
A = Area
.5 = 1/2
b = base
h = height.

The triangle in question is the triangle on the left side of your diagram.
the base is 9 cm
the height is 12 cm
Now calculate the area, then we can calculate the volume.

Answer 4

I'll wait for the area of the triangle.

Answer 5

Review.

Answer 6

After getting the area of that triangle, all you have to do is multiply whatever you get for the area by width of the prism (18 cm)

Good luck.
