A triangular prism is 5 yards long. It has a triangular face with a height of 13 yards. The volume of the prism is 260 cubic yards. What is the base of its triangular face?
To find the base of the triangular face, we first need to calculate the area of the triangular face using the formula for the volume of a triangular prism:
Volume = 1/2 * base * height * length
260 = 1/2 * base * 13 * 5
260 = 32.5 * base
Base = 8 yards
Therefore, the base of the triangular face is 8 yards.
