Find the volume of the triangular prism
Unit 2 lesson 7
To find the volume of a triangular prism, you need to multiply the area of the base by the height of the prism.
Let's say the base of the triangular prism has a length of 6 units and a height of 4 units. The area of the base would be:
(1/2) x 6 x 4 = 12 square units
Now, let's say the height of the prism is 8 units. To find the volume, we would multiply the area of the base by the height of the prism:
12 x 8 = 96 cubic units
Therefore, the volume of the triangular prism is 96 cubic units.
