A.278.4 square inches B.139.2 square inches C.556.8 square inches D.197.2 square inches What is the volume of the figure? * A.3,340.8 cubic inches B.6,681.6 cubic inches C.4,565.76 cubic inches D.4,732.8 cubic inches Use the photo for both questions
1) The base of the figure is a triangle. To find the area of a triangle, you need to use the equation: \[\frac{ bh }{ 2 }\] where b= the base, and h = the height. The base would be 23.2 because it's at the bottom. The height is 12 because the top triangle is the same as the bottom. When you plug these into the equation, you get: \[\frac{ 23.2(12) }{ 2 } = \frac{ 278.4 }{ 2 } = 139.2\] 2) The figure could be identified as a triangular prism. The equation for finding the volume of a triangular prism is: \[\frac{ blh }{ 2 }\] Again, the base is 23.2 and the height is 12. The length is the longest side of the figure, which is 24. When you plug these into the equation, you get: \[\frac{ 23.2 * 12 * 24 }{ 2 } = \frac{ 6681.6 }{ 2 } = 3340.8\] Hope this helped!
